Fig.11 (immediately postop palatal view): The interdental papillae are finally supported by the immediate provisionals (#9,10).  The granulation tissue palatal to the #10 provisional happens to have not been removed.  It should be not a problem, since the main infected source (the tooth) is removed.  Short term follow up will most likely confirm this idea.
