ABSTRACT
Reconstruction of lost interdental papilla once the contact point is restored in midline diastema cases are as well important in restoring the esthetics as closure of diastema. Aim:
The purpose of this study was to predict the midline papilla reconstruction in treated median diastema of variable etiology.Method:
The treated sample consisted of 40 patients with variable etiology of midline diastema (6 of abnormal labial frenum, 6 of mesiodens ,8 of anodontia or microdontia, 8 of para functional habits, 6 of flared or rotated incisors and 6 of dentoalveolar disproportion) with otherwise healthy periodontium. The method used was PPI (papilla presence index) by D.Cardaropoli.Results:
The study suggests that prognosis for papillary reconstruction is not good in cases of mesiodens.Conclusion:
In spite of getting a good contact point, various other factors are playing a role in achieving good esthetics in cases of median diastema.
