Innovative treatment

The trend in dentistry is moving to smaller and less invasive treatment. At the same time patients are becoming increasingly more conscious about their dental health and appearance.

Icon, from DMG, offers the opportunity to treat decay at its initial stage without the need for injections or drilling. Unsightly cervical staining can often be reduced or eliminated completely. Interdental decay can be halted in its early stages, without the need for occlusal access, which helps to preserve healthy tooth substance and improves the prognosis of the tooth. Icon also offers a quick and painless remedy for white and brown spot lesions after fixed orthodontic treatment.

Icon can be applied most efficiently for multiple cervical and labial lesions, a treatment often provided in private and mixed practices. The ability to simultaneously prepare teeth and infiltrate the caries allows dentists to deliver the treatment more efficiently. There is no requirement to drill and normally no need to provide local anaesthetic; this is something which will be appreciated by nervous patients. The ability to treat lesions without (additional) damage to healthy tooth substance will impress your patients as a highly innovative treatment form.
