It is quite common to have black triangles between the teeth. If these small spaces make you feel self-conscious about your smile, consider composite bonding. This popular procedure quickly fills gaps and gives you a smile you’re proud to show off.

What causes black triangles between teeth?

There are many reasons as to why we have black triangles between the teeth. Sometimes, it is simply due to the shape of your teeth. In other cases, black triangles are the result of orthodontic treatment, aggressive tooth brushing or ageing.

If these spaces between the teeth are new or large in size it may indicate that a more serious oral health issue is present, such as gum disease or bone loss. Contact your dentist for assistance.

What is composite bonding and how is it used for black triangles?

Also known as dental bonding, this dental treatment targets common smile irregularities. Offering a quick cosmetic fix, rather than a permanent solution, composite bonding uses a tooth-coloured resin to disguise black triangles, chips, cracks, worn edges and discolouration.

Black triangle teeth bonding procedure

Composite bonding is one of the quickest ways to achieve a beautiful straight white smile. Carried out in just one appointment, a full mouth transformation takes less than four hours to complete.

  1. Your dentist starts by washing the teeth
  2. A dental resin is then applied to the teeth in thin layers
  3. Next, a UV light is shone onto the resin to cure it in place
  4. The resin is polished and shaped to the desired aesthetic
  5. After final bite checks, you will leave the practice with your new smile

How much does it cost to fix black triangles on teeth?

The answer to this changes based on the number of teeth being treated. At Yorkshire Dental Suite, the price of composite bonding is £395 per tooth. 10 teeth cost approximately £3,750, while 20 teeth are around £7,000.

The average price in the UK is £150 - £500 per tooth. The procedure is not available on the NHS, meaning you will need to go to a private practice instead, but many clinics will provide pay monthly options to help you spread the cost of the treatment (if needed).

Do black triangles between teeth need to be fixed?

Not always. However, if food is becoming trapped between the teeth, the risk of plaque, tartar (and eventually gum disease) developing increases. At that point treatment is recommended. Many patients wish to have composite bonding purely for aesthetic reasons, or if the spaces are affecting their speech.
