Veneers or crowns would be to invasive and costly for this treatemnt. The patient did not require numbning for this treatment and the procedure lasted about a half hour with four teeth being treated.

White Spots fixed with Resin Bonding
Procedure Details
A resin filling material was used to blend into the natural shade of the teeth. White spots can form for a variety of reasons including, loss of enamel and incorrect formation of the enamel. These spots are not painful and do not spread, but they can stand out more if the shade of the tooth changes.
