A novel surgical procedure for papilla reconstruction using connective tissue graft and platelet rich fibrin: A case report

If the search for beauty is timeless, then having the perfect smile is always in style. One of the techniques to achieve that is regaining the lost interdental papilla. There has been a definitive void in the dental arena pertaining to papilla esthetic. Loss of interdental papilla prompts to phonetic, functional, and esthetic problems. Surgical techniques are multifarious, but are perplexing and very erratic. The refurbishment of the lost papilla is elusive. Previous attempts have been made to augment the interdental papilla using displaced flaps, connective tissue grafts and repeated inflammatory stimulation with diverse results. This clinical study was aimed to reconstruct the lost or blunted interdental papillae with connective tissue graft and plasma rich fibrin for esthetic purpose and for maintaining oral health with the objective to determine the extent to which the procedure can revert the maxillary esthetic.
