Synopsis:
Unsightly congenital enamel defects and acquired white spot lesions can be troublesome for many patients. Historically, these blemishes have been treated with invasive and costly resin bondings and veneers. Dealing with enamel defects can prove particularly troublesome for young patients, which when left untreated, often become a source of embarrassment for the patient. Or worse, some lesions may progress to cavitations, particularly post-orthodontic white spot lesions. In this course, Dr. Jeanette MacLean, an advocate for minimally invasive dentistry, will teach you three simple and painless options to manage enamel defects. MI Paste, ICON Resin Infiltration, and etch/bleach seal can improve or even completely reverse the appearance of congenital enamel defects and white spot lesions while preserving tooth structure and repairing the patient’s natural enamel.

Educational Objectives:
Upon completion of this course, you should be able to:
  • Describe the evidence for using MI Paste, ICON Resin Infiltration, and Etch/Bleach/Seal
  • Review informed consent, coding, and billing
  • Describe case selection, materials, and clinical protocol for each procedure
  • Review the pros and cons for each technique
  • Describe how to attract new patients by offering minimally invasive treatment options
