Abstract
White spot lesions are early caries lesions with a milky white opaque appearance, clearly distinguishable from the surrounding intact enamel due to the difference in refractive index between the intact enamel and the demineralized area. Diagnosing these lesions and treating them early prevents the excessive loss of material in the dental tissue that will occur as the caries progresses. This review is mainly focusing on, the development, diagnosis and management of the white spot lesions.
