Although various techniques have been introduced to improve black triangles, the lack of reproducible experimental models has prevented development of successful protocols to regenerate or to compensate loss of the interdental papilla. Therefore, the objective of this study is first to develop a reliable animal model of open gingival embrasure and then to validate a minimally invasive injection technique using hyaluronic acid (HA) filler to augment the interdental papilla.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Methods:<\/jats:bold> To reproduce open gingival embrasure in rats, rapid space opening was induced between the mandibular incisors by attachment of a compression spring. Loss of interdental papilla height was morphologically evaluated and calculated using standardized serial photographs, microcomputed tomography, and histologic sections. Afterward, HA fillers or phosphate\u2010buffered saline (PBS) was locally injected, and changes in the interdental papilla were evaluated.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold> After 7 days of space opening, the margin of the interdental papilla between the mandibular incisors gradually became irregular and flat, indicating a condition similar to the open gingival embrasure (<jats:italic>P &lt;<\/jats:italic>0.05). Local injection of HA filler induced an augmentation effect of the interdental papilla compared with injection of PBS (<jats:italic>P &lt;<\/jats:italic>0.05). Interdental papilla became convex, and inner granules containing HA were detected within the submucosal layer after its injection.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusions:<\/jats:bold> Open gingival embrasure was reproduced reliably in vivo. Local injection of HA filler was validated as a meaningful minimally invasive procedure to improve open gingival embrasure.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1902\/jop.2017.170101","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,7,3]],"date-time":"2017-07-03T09:45:36Z","timestamp":1499075136000},"page":"1221-1230","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":20,"title":["Local Injection of Hyaluronic Acid Filler Improves Open Gingival Embrasure: Validation Through a Rat Model"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"88","author":[{"given":"Soojin","family":"Pi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yoon Jeong","family":"Choi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Soonshin","family":"Hwang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dong\u2010Won","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jong In","family":"Yook","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kyung\u2010Ho","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chooryung J.","family":"Chung","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_8_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067\/mod.2001.114831"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0757.2004.03676.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1902\/jop.2007.060517"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5005\/jcdp-9-6-92"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1902\/jop.2000.71.2.299"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1902\/jop.2008.070315"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1708-8240.2009.00307.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_9_1","first-page":"296","article-title":"Black triangle dilemma and its management in esthetic dentistry","volume":"10","author":"Singh VP","year":"2013","journal-title":"Dent Res J"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1902\/jop.2007.060105"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/term.1737"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/jcp.22405"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/14653249.2010.542462"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.joen.2013.01.011"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/odi.12175"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/ocr.12138"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0022034513513026"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1708-8208.2010.00295.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_19_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jerd.12216"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_20_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0036-1597685"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_21_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jcpe.12371"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_22_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00784-015-1677-z"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_23_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4103\/2231-0762.192948"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_24_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/clr.12892"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_25_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"BertlK GotfredsenK JensenSS BruckmannC StavropoulosA.Can hyaluronan injections augment deficient papillae at implant\u2010supported crowns in the anterior maxilla?
