Many patients find it harder to keep up with their oral hygiene as well. Yes, gum recession can lead to black triangles. I&#8217;m sorry you&#8217;re dealing with this. The first thing I&#8217;d do is find out the cause of the gum recession, making sure it&#8217;s not a result of gum disease. If gum disease is the cause, that will need to be dealt with first. <\/p>\n<p>There are orthodontic treatments that make it easier to brush and floss properly. For instance, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.regiondental.com\/tulsa-invisalign\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">with Invisalign<\/a>, you simply remove your aligners then brush and floss as you normally would. <\/p>\n<h2>Treating Black Triangle After Orthodontics<\/h2>\n<p>Sometimes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.regiondental.com\/glenpool-orthodontist\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">orthodontics can correctly repair<\/a> a black triangle, but if this happened during your treatment that&#8217;s not going to happen. Instead, you&#8217;ll need a cosmetic solution. <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll be honest with you, not many dentists can do this repair. It&#8217;s treated with dental bonding, but because of the placement of the spaces, it requires some real expertise in cosmetics to make this look natural. <\/p>\n<p>Unless your dentist is among the top cosmetic dentists in the country, I&#8217;d have him recommend someone for you. <\/p>\n<p>This blog is brought to you by Glenpool Dentist Dr. Ryan Noah<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I had a problem with gum recession during my braces.
