Changes of papillary height (mm) from baseline to 3 and 6 months of follow-up
| Surface | Baseline | 3 months | Gain in PH | Pa value | 6 months | Gain in PH | Pa value |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Mesial
M (SD) |
2.3 (0.48) | 4.2 (0.91) | 1.9 (0.87) | P = 0.005b | 3.8 (0.91) | 1.5 (0.97) | P = 0.007b |

Distal
M (SD) |
2.3 (0.48) | 4.3 (0.67) | 2 (0.66) | P = 0.004b | 3.5 (0.70) | 1.2 (0.78) | P = 0.01b |
aTested between baseline and at 3 and 6 months.
bSignificant, non-parametric Wilcoxon paired test.
M (SD) = mean (standard deviation).
PH = papillary height.
