The loss of interdental papilla between teeth leads to formation of unaesthetic ?black triangles?. This is one of the common problems encountered in routine clinical practice and of great concern from aesthetic as well as phonetics point of view, when occurs in the anterior maxillary region. However, augmentation of lost interdental papillae is one of the challenging periodontal plastic surgical procedures, as well as it is highly technique sensitive. This case report discusses two different surgical approaches namely, Han and Takei Technique and Azzi et al technique using connective tissue graft in the management of lostinterdental papilla in the anterior maxillary region. The patients were followed up for one year and when compared no significant difference was found in the results.
