Brief Summary
This randomized split-mouth clinical trial aims to compare the clinical effectiveness of microneedling combined with injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF) versus hyaluronic acid (HA) gel injection in the reconstruction of Class I interdental papilla loss. The study hypothesizes that MN + i-PRF will yield greater papillary regeneration, offering a minimally invasive, biologically active alternative to traditional surgical approaches for soft-tissue esthetic rehabilitation.
