INTERDENTAL PAPILLA: A NARRATIVE REVIEW

0 - Default Title
Description
The interdental papilla is the portion of gingival tissue that occupies and fills the embrasure space between adjacent teeth below their contact point; in a healthy state, it helps prevent food impaction, contributes to periodontal integrity, and forms an esthetic gingival contour. Its presence and morphology depend on several anatomical and biological factors, including the vertical distance from the alveolar bone crest to the contact point , the gingival biotype and tissue thickness, root divergence, tooth form and alignment, and adequate vascular and connective tissue support. When disease or deficiency occurs - for instance owing to interproximal bone loss from periodontitis, trauma, incorrect restorative contacts, orthodontic movement, or age¿related tissue shrinkage - the papilla may recede or disappear, producing a "black triangle" . These black triangles are not merely cosmetic inconveniences; they can lead to food impaction, plaque retention, gingival inflammation, phonetic issues, and lowered patient satisfaction. There are different methods to reconstruct papilla. Yet, no method is universally accepted.
