Black triangle treatment

 

Black triangles are naturally occurring spaces between teeth due to two triangular shaped teeth touching each other. 

This is completely normal and some type of spacing is always natural and even beneficial, as it helps improve cleans ability and gum health, and overall dental hygiene.

Etiology of black triangle

• Decreased interproximal bone height from periodontal disease, attachment loss, periodontal surgery, or trauma
• Excessive embrasure space and deficient papilla form affected by root angulation, inter radicular distance, crown form, and distance between alveolar bone and interproximal contact
• Patients’ biologic width and inherent or thinning gingival biotype
• Other: Age, patient habits, iatrogenic issues.

BLACK TRAIAGLE CAN CAUSE

• Retention of food debris or biofilm accumulation and potential tissue inflammation
• Lateral compaction of food debris, creating uncomfortable wedging pressure between tightly spaced roots
• Phonetic issues: escape of air or saliva during speech
• Iatrogenic narrowing of roots with repeated scaling to remove calculus.

The Bioclear method is unique in making a direct restorative solution to black triangles both simple and predictable. It is very different from traditional composite bonding in technique and results.
