Summary

This study tests a gel made from natural particles (polynucleotides) injected into the gums to treat black triangles—gaps between teeth caused by gum loss. About 40 adults with at least one black triangle in the smile zone will receive the gel. The goal is to see if it safely fills the gap and improves gum appearance without surgery.
