Periodontist Removed 2mm From Gums, Now There Are Black Triangles Between Teeth, Is This Permanent?

513573anon
My periodontist removed some inflammed gums (interdental gingiva) between my teeth. She removed about 1-2 mm of gum in between each tooth. Now I have black triangles. Will the gums grow back to fill in these spaces, or is this permanent?
