ICON Treatment Stockholm – Remove White Spots on Teeth
Do white or brown spots make you feel less confident about your smile? At Gloss & Floss Dental Care® in Stockholm, we offer ICON treatment – a gentle, drill-free, and pain-free method that restores the natural look of your teeth. In many cases, this advanced solution delivers long-lasting, natural results after just one session, though in some situations a follow-up visit may be recommended to achieve the best outcome.
What Causes White Spots on Teeth?
White or brownish spots are common and can appear for different reasons:
- Mineralisation disturbances – when enamel forms with lower mineral density, often after childhood illness or trauma.
- Excess fluoride during development, also known as fluorosis.
- Early-stage caries – small demineralised areas that can appear after orthodontic treatments such as braces.
In each case, the enamel becomes porous. As a result, light reflects unevenly, giving the teeth a chalky white or brown appearance. For a deeper explanation, read our blog: What is ICON treatment for teeth?.
How ICON Treatment Works
ICON (Infiltration Concept) is a modern and minimally invasive approach. Instead of drilling, a liquid resin penetrates the porous enamel, sealing and stabilising it. This makes light pass evenly through the tooth, blending the spot with the natural colour and improving the appearance instantly.
Step-by-Step Procedure
- Professional cleaning – our dental hygienist gently polishes the tooth surface.
- Etching gel – a mild solution opens microscopic pores without drilling.
- Resin infiltration – a tooth-coloured resin flows into the pores and seals them.
- Light curing & polishing – the resin is hardened and polished, leaving a natural shine.
The entire appointment usually takes 60–80 minutes, depending on how many teeth are treated.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is ICON treatment?
ICON treatment is a resin infiltration method that targets porous enamel. It removes white or brown spots without drilling or damaging healthy teeth.
How long does ICON treatment take?
Most appointments take about 60–80 minutes. If several teeth are treated, each extra tooth adds only a few minutes.
Is ICON treatment painful?
No. ICON is a gentle and pain-free procedure. Anaesthetic is usually not required, making it ideal for patients with dental fear.
Are the results permanent?
Yes, the results of ICON treatment in Stockholm are long-lasting. With good oral hygiene and regular dental hygienist visits, the white spots rarely return.
Can children and teenagers have ICON treatment?
Yes. Once permanent teeth have erupted, ICON is a safe and effective option, especially for young patients after braces.
How does ICON compare to whitening or veneers?
Teeth whitening removes surface stains, while veneers cover imperfections. ICON works differently – it preserves your natural enamel and treats the cause of white spots directly. Learn more in our detailed blog: What is ICON treatment for teeth?.
Can ICON treatment be combined with other dental procedures?
Yes. ICON can be combined with root canal treatments, crowns and bridges, or a full bite rehabilitation plan for optimal results.
