Closing “Black Triangles”

Part 2

Last month’s article was about the Bioclear method and stated the numerousadvantages of how this procedure has saved teeth from being ground down into crowns. This month let’s focus on how it can close black triangles, clinically known as open gingival embrasures.

Bioclear is a method utilizing injection-molded heated composite to create strong and esthetic restorations without having to cut down a substantial amount of tooth structure.

Black triangles are often due to bone loss and recession around the gum line, and sometimes due to teeth movement, especially after braces. Dark spaces between the teeth can make the teeth look old. They are also prone to accumulate food debris encouraging excessive plaque build-up.

In cases where the enamel is perfectly healthy, black triangles needn’t be masked with porcelain veneers, which result in having to remove tooth structure. Using the Bioclear system, these gaps can be closed without removal of tooth structure, improving the integrity of the gum and the appearance of your smile, thus making the teeth look more youthful.

Take a look at these amazing results. If you have “black triangles” you can look younger and improve the look of your smile. Find out today if Bioclear can help you.
