Our minimally invasive procedure involves no drills, no pain, and yields permanent results.
What Causes White Spots On Teeth
You practice good oral hygiene and get your teeth [professionally whitened] once a year, but still have embarrassing white patches on some teeth. What gives? White spots can show up on teeth for several reasons, including:
- Orthodontic treatment: if you had orthodontic work done recently, you might have gotten white spots where your braces were once glued to your teeth. Although these spots tend to fade on their own, poor oral hygiene can make them more prominent.
- Nutrition: eating a low-calcium diet can weaken your enamel and result in white spots on teeth. Tooth-friendly foods that can strengthen your enamel include cheese, nuts, and leafy green vegetables.
- Fluorosis: this common disorder is caused by overexposure to fluoride during childhood. You can avoid fluorosis in your children by watching closely when they brush and teach them to spit out the toothpaste instead of swallowing it.
- Medications: certain medications and antibiotics can weaken your enamel and allow white spots to form.
In most cases, white spots don’t pose a significant risk to your oral health. However, these lesions have the chance of becoming dental cavities if the tooth becomes severely demineralized.

How Can I Get Rid Of White Spots On My Teeth?
You may be surprised to learn that white spots can’t simply be erased with conventional teeth whitening methods. When you use bleaching trays or strips, the entire surface of the tooth is whitened. This means that the discolored spots are bleached simultaneously, causing a color discrepancy within the tooth.
To treat this issue, we must first focus on restoring the enamel so the discolored area can match the rest of the tooth and neighboring teeth. Minimal Intervention (MI) Paste is a cosmetic solution for getting rid of white spots on teeth. This water-based, sugar-free cream comes in a tube and can be applied directly to the surface of your teeth. The purpose of this treatment is to condition, protect, and rebuild your enamel.
How Does Mi Paste Work?
Just like the rest of your body, your mouth needs a balanced pH. When your pH is unbalanced or acidic, it can lead to a buildup of plaque and tartar and eventually oral health problems. Your saliva is a natural defense system within your mouth that protects your teeth and neutralizes acid to restore normal pH levels.
MI Paste contains ingredients that replenish the minerals on your teeth and saliva. It improves your mouth’s ability to neutralize acid, restore pH levels to normal, and:
- Restores minerals
- Boosts saliva flow
- Soothes sensitive areas
- Improves fluoride absorption
