Patients will undergo subgingival scaling employing a Piezoelectric ultrasonic scaler to eliminate local factors.

DEVICE

Derma pen with topical ascorbic Acid

local anesthesia of 2% lignocaine will be administered by infiltration technique in the anterior maxillary region. Microneedling of the mucosa will be performed using dermapen needles, employing an intermittent back-and-forth motion in the anterior maxillary and mandibular region for 30-40 seconds, reaching a depth of 1.5 mm. This will involve the creation of microholes in the gingival tissue using derma pen to enhance the concentration and penetration of the ascorbic Acid through the gingival tissues.
