Aesthetic Black Triangle Closure
Close Black Triangles with Cosmetic Dental Bonding
The small black triangular spaces that form between teeth and gums affect your smile’s appearance and can trap food. At St. Lawrence Dentistry in Mississauga, we close black triangles using cosmetic dental bonding, restoring a clean, beautiful smile line without surgery.
What are Black Triangles
Black triangles form when gums recede or teeth have naturally pointed roots. The resulting spaces between tooth contacts look dark and unesthetic.

FAQS
Frequently asked questions
Why do black triangles form?
They form when gums recede, teeth shift, or anatomy creates space between tooth contacts. Gum disease accelerates the process.
Can I prevent black triangles?
Good oral hygiene, gentle brushing, and addressing gum disease help prevent them.
Will bonding close my black triangles permanently?
Bonding is durable, but the underlying cause must be addressed to prevent new triangles from forming.
Is bonding treatment painful?
No. The procedure causes no discomfort.
How long does bonding last?
Bonding typically lasts 5 to 7 years or longer with proper care.
Can I prevent the black triangles from returning?
Address the underlying cause. If gum disease is responsible, treating it prevents new spaces.
Is bonding the only option?
Graft surgery is an alternative for severe recession. Bonding works best for moderate spaces.
Does bonding stain?
Bonding can stain over time. Avoid dark beverages and smoking to keep it looking fresh.
