Description
Summary:Background: Hyaluronic acid is a treatment option for this deficiency gingival papilla, since it aims to increase tissue volume in the region of loss of interdental papilla, minimally invasive. Aim this study was to describe the application of Hyaluronic acid in a deficient gingival papilla. Case report: Patient presented absence of interdental papilla in the maxillary arch around upper anterior teeth. A comprehensive exam was performed, plus 2D photographs taken with a professional camera coupled to a device for image standardization, and an intraoral scanning with the OMNICAM scanner. Three applications of Hyaluronic acid were performed to fill the black spaces, at an interval of four weeks. The patient was followed-up for three months, and the recovery of papilla was observed. Conclusion: The Hyaluronic acid as gingival filling material can be considered as a treatment option for augmenting interdental papilla in aesthetic area.
