Abstract:
Esthetics is an integral part of successful periodontal therapy. Interdental papilla plays a significant part in esthetics. Loss of interdental papilla leads to gingival black triangles. To prevent this, many surgical modifications in the flap designs have evolved over the years. This review focuses on anatomy of interdental papilla, different types of interdental papillary loss and its various preservation techniques.
