I went to the dentist today and had a gap slightly filled in between my front teeth. Seen as though the gap couldn't be filled in right up to the root, it has left a tiny triangular gap at the top by the gum.

Cheers!

Just to clarify, the triangular gap that I hope the gum will descend into is no more than 1mm long.
