What Causes White Spots on Teeth?
White spots are common in both children and adults. These lighter enamel areas are often caused by:
- Dental fluorosis — Excess fluoride intake during enamel development.
- Decalcification — Early mineral loss from plaque buildup, often around orthodontic brackets.
- Molar-incisor hypoplasia — Developmental enamel defect from early childhood illness, fever, or trauma.
Teeth whitening alone can sometimes make white spots appear more noticeable by increasing contrast with surrounding enamel.
How We Treat White Spots on Teeth
We tailor treatment to the cause and severity:
- Professional teeth whitening — May reduce contrast in mild cases.
- Enamel microabrasion — gently removes a thin layer of enamel; often paired with whitening.
- Composite bonding or porcelain veneers — Covers stubborn or extensive areas for a smooth, even finish.
At ProCare Family Dental, we offer modern, minimally invasive options to restore a naturally uniform smile.
