White spots on teeth can sometimes be an early sign of enamel demineralization, a process where minerals are lost from the tooth surface before a cavity forms. However, not all white spots indicate enamel loss. They may also result from fluorosis, enamel development issues, or previous orthodontic treatment. These spots often appear chalky or opaque and can become more noticeable over time. Early evaluation is important because some cases can be treated before significant damage occurs
