The inter proximal space between the teeth are triangular spaced space. The base of triangle is the proximal surface of the connecting teeth.
The apex of the triangle is in the area of contact.

The inter proximal spaces are normally filled gingival tissue(gingival papillae).
The proper contact and alignment of adjoining teeth allow proper spacing between them for the normal bulk of gingival tissue attached to the bone and teeth.

Gingival tissue helps to maintain these tissues against trauma during mastication and invasion by bacteria. This arrangement allows sufficient bone tissue between teeth and anchoring the teeth securely in the jaw.
It also simplifies the problem of space for the blood and nerve supply to the surrounding alveolar process and other investing tissue of teeth.
