Black Triangle Treatment in Lancaster PA
Black triangle treatment reduces small gaps between teeth caused by gum recession or bone loss to create a more natural, balanced, and complete smile.
Bonding to close spacing using the Bioclear system is a minimally invasive, esthetic approach used to close spaces between teeth and eliminate “black triangles” that often develop due to gum recession or changes in bone support. This technique allows Dr. Genetti to conservatively enhance the natural shape of the teeth using heated composite resin and clear matrix forms designed to create smooth, anatomical contours. The result is a more complete, balanced smile while preserving as much natural tooth structure as possible.
The Procedure
To begin, Dr. Genetti will evaluate your smile, gum health, and overall dental condition to determine if Bioclear bonding is the most appropriate treatment option. The procedure involves carefully placing clear matrices around the teeth and injecting heated composite material to rebuild and reshape the contact areas between teeth. This helps close spaces, improve tooth proportions, and create a more natural emergence profile at the gumline. In most cases, local anesthesia is not required, and treatment is completed conservatively with little to no discomfort. Following treatment, Dr. Genetti will review post-operative instructions and discuss how to maintain your results for long-term success.
