Be carefull: They are decalcification spots, not quite a cavity yet, but it is the process of the tooth starting to breakdown. It may turn into cavity if you do not take of them.

Many causes: Most white spots are either from irregularities in the enamel of your teeth or from decalcification caused by decay-producing bacteria. See your family dentist. There are many good ways to make white spots less visible.
