Icon – a modern caries treatment without drilling

Early caries detection and limitation of caries activity before having to eliminate tooth substance are the primary goals of a modern treatment plan. But what options do dentists have when it is too early to drill? Wouldn’t it be excellent if the dentist could offer a treatment without drilling which is not addicted to the patient’s compliance and reliably stops caries at an early stage? This is what Icon does. It closes the gap between prevention and filling therapy and offers a new, innovative way of caries treatment.
