White spots can mean many things. Usually though if you have several white spots (maybe you had braces in the past?) they are decalcifications. Meaning at some point in the past your teeth did not get enough fluoride or were exposed to many acids (from food). And the tooth began to break down (start of a cavity). But just in the nick of time your tooth was again exposed to fluoride and didnt continue breaking down/ decaying. So a permanent "scar" in the form of a bright white spot was left behind. There is nothing you can really do to fix it now. Just use fluoride toothpaste. Whitening your teeth will most likely make those white spots whiter, which would visually make it worse.

bleaching your teeth may help minimize the appearance of hypocalcification, but you may need crowns or veneers to get rid of it completely
