Two clinicians share how Flairesse Bleaching Gel CP and Icon Smooth Surface work together to brighten patients' smiles and noninvasively treat white spot lesions
Masking Enamel Opacities
Classified as a medical device, Flairesse was designed specifically to support the treatment of enamel opacities, together with Icon. Used as a system, the treatment improves developmental enamel opacities and medically induced discolorations.
“Most of my patients have incisal hypoplasia, so their 6-year molars and front teeth have white spot lesions, which can be socially challenging—kids make fun of each other for a lot less than that,” Dr. Lohmann said. “Icon resin infiltration reinforces strength and removes the optical illusion of white spots.”
Flairesse Bleaching Gel CP is prescribed for 7 to 10 days; once bleaching is complete, patients wait 2 weeks for their teeth to rehydrate before proceeding with the Icon resin infiltration treatment. Dr. Lohmann shared that this approach allows her to whiten smiles first and then infiltrate the white spots so they blend with the brightened shade.
“These minimally invasive products allow me to help patients who are self-conscious about white spot lesions. I can brighten their smiles while conservatively treating the opacities,” she explained. “I’ve seen incredible results, including on my own son.”
