“…According to Chu et al, the ideal papilla‐crown proportion around natural teeth of healthy patients was approximately 40%. In previous studies, in 240 interdental papilla sites, the papilla‐crown proportion was approximately 44% for all tooth groups, and it was 45% in 720 interdental papilla sites in maxillary anterior teeth . In our study, the papilla‐crown proportion was 35.5% after 3 months, and improved to 41.7% after 3 years.…”

“…On comparison of the overall CPP on mesial and distal sides, the mean mesial CPP values were found to be significantly higher than the mean distal CPP for both the males and females. A few previous investigations have evaluated the CPH [ 4 5 20 ] and have correlated it with the presence or absence of interdental papilla. This is perhaps the only investigation which has recorded the mesial and distal CPP values and correlated them on either aspect of the individual tooth.…”

“…The extent of inter-radicular distance among adjacent teeth and the vertical distance from contact point to the alveolar crest have independent and combined consequences on the fill of embrasure space by interdental papilla. [ 4 5 ] Contact points of adjacent teeth have divergent locations[ 6 7 ] and dimensions,[ 8 9 ] with those for central incisors being positioned coronally while that for the neighboring distal teeth being placed at an apical location. The proximal contact area (PCA) has been defined as the distance from apical to the incisal points of contact area.…”

Background: The regeneration and maintenance of the interdental papilla presents a great challenge to the clinician while smile designing. Proportions of papilla height (PH), crestal PH (CPH), and proximal contact areas (PCA) are more stable parameters. Aim: The purpose of the present study was to evaluate and correlate the papilla proportion (PP), crestal PP (CPP), and PCA proportion (PCAP) in periodontally healthy males and females. Materials and Methods: One hundred and twenty patients in an age group of 20–40 years, divided equally based on gender, were assessed for PH, CPH, and PCA of maxillary anterior teeth. The findings were recorded on study models and radiographs to obtain the PP, CPP, and PCAP on the mesial and distal aspects of respective tooth. Statistical Analysis: The overall comparison of parameters was performed using paired t -test. Results: The mean mesial PP (43.51% ± 3.10% for male and 45.23% ± 2.23% for female) and CPP values (48.36% ± 3.35% for male and 51.16% ± 2.96% for female) were found to be greater of each tooth type and were more pronounced for females. The PCAP values were greater for distal aspects (36.76% ± 7.00% for males and 33.30% ± 6.93% for females). Conclusion: The results of the study indicate that PP and CPP are more pronounced in females, while the PCAP is more marked in males. Furthermore, it appears that the PP and CPP are inversely related to the PCAP in both males and females.

“…Among these, the IDP acts as a natural barrier that protects the underlying periodontal structures and is a key element in influencing esthetics in an individual. [ 1 2 ] Although attempts have been made to restore the proximal soft-tissue defects through regeneration, the IDP presents realistic challenges in attaining its original dimensions, especially in terms of its height, width, and color. These characteristics of the soft tissues in the interdental areas are influenced by crown forms, tooth contact areas, and vertical and horizontal distance between the proximal surfaces.…”

Background: The proportionate presence of natural teeth, gingival tissues along with the interdental papilla (IDP) is critical components of an esthetic smile. Hence, the present study examined the IDP height (PH), its position clinically and radiographically as papilla proportion (PP) and crestal PP (CPP). Materials and Methods: The study included 120 patients with healthy periodontium with an age group of 20–40 years, equally divided as males and females. The maxillary anterior interdental sites from canine to contralateral canine were examined for PH, PP, crestal PH (CPH), and CPP. Results: The mean values of PH, PP, CPH, and CPP were found to be greater on the mesial aspects of all the teeth as compared to the distal aspects. The females exhibited overall higher values than males for all the parameters. Majority of the teeth exhibited statistically significant differences for PP on mesial aspect when compared based on gender with mean values of 44.58% ±3.35% (males) and 47.17% ±3.23% (females) ( P < 0.0001) for central incisor (CI). The CPP on mesial aspect for CI was 50.57% ±3.51% (males) and 54.21% ±3.76% (females) with P < 0.0001. A similar trend was followed in other teeth. Conclusion: The maxillary anterior teeth exhibit greater values on mesial aspects for parameters such as PH, PP, and CPP in both the gender thereby indicating an apical positioning of the IDP tip on distal aspect when compared to mesial. Furthermore, the values and differences were more pronounced in females than the males.

Non invasive and surgical measurement of length of soft tissue from the tip of interdental papilla to the alveolar crest

Abstract: If the clinical recordings are appropriately standardized, then noninvasive radiographic methods can be used to evaluate the papilla length with good accuracy.
