Brief Summary  
This randomized controlled clinical trial aims to comparatively evaluate the effectiveness of papilla reconstruction using the Papilla Reconstruction using Incision and Submucosal Mobilization technique with and without platelet rich fibrin as an adjunct

Systemically healthy patients aged 20 to 35 years presenting with interdental papilla loss in the anterior region will be selected 
Participants will be randomly allocated into two group
 The test group will receive papilla reconstruction using the PRISM technique with platelet rich fibrin The control group will receive papilla reconstruction using the PRISM technique without platelet rich fibrin

Clinical parameters related to interdental papilla fill and soft tissue healing will be assessed at baseline and at follow up intervals
 The outcomes of both groups will be compared to evaluate the additional benefit of platelet rich fibrin in papilla reconstruction
