The DMD board in your TV set is starting to fail.
This part is made of thousands of micro mirrors.
Unfortunately with time and use they can get stuck and make this effect. The problem with get worse until the complete screen is covered. The only way to fix it is by replacing that part.
It runs from $89.00 - $150.00 depending on the one you need.

I hope my answer was helpful :)

SOURCE: Numerous white spots on Smasung DLP TV

You will actually get white and black dots , the black ones are tougher to see because of the color in the background , within 2 months youre picture will be fully covered with dots....I went through the Samsung website troubleshooting flow chart , and it led me to a bad Digital Micromiror Device , or DMD board . What is actually the problem is the DMV chip connected to this board . Inside this chip are 3 million tiny mirrors ,and when they physically get stuck , they either show black or white instead of a color . Samsung will not tell me the part number of the chip , they will only offer to send a service tech to my house .

Are they spots or dots? If they are spots then the optics are contaminates. If they are dots either white or black then you have a bad DMD chip. The cost of repair depends on who you hire to repair the set or if you do it yourself it depands who you purcahse the part from.

It's either mirror hinge fatigue or dust on the inside.
Mirror hinge fatigue can be fixed by putting a solid color picture (white or gray works best from what I understand) on the display and letting it sit for 20 minutes.
If it's dust, someone is going to have to go in there and clean it out.
Also could be a defective micromirror device.
Try the first suggestion and if it doesn't work, you're going to need a technician to take a look at it.

Is there a recall on the mitsubishi dlp chip wd-65735 and are they replacing them free

Nope,,,White dots, white snow or sparkling stars on your DLP TV mean only one thing - a worn out DMD chip. The white dot syndrome seems to happen when the DLP TVshave been in use anywhere from two to five years - usually when the warranty has expired
Certain brands seem more vulnerable than others to the white dot syndrome. Samsung and Mitsubishi DLP TVs have been plagued with the problems for several years now. Sony and JVC choose to take the TVs set off the market in response to complaints from disgruntled owners.
If you read the various forums offering solutions, you'll see customers being given quotes of $600 and upwards for solving the white spot syndrome or replacing the DMD DLP chip. Fortunately, there are companies offering the offering the DLP chip for under $230 if you want to fix it.
