Photobiomodulation Therapy + Hyaluronic Acid Gel Injection
This arm includes the test sites (e.g., left maxillary quadrant) in each participant. The same dose of hyaluronic acid (0.2 mL of 0.8% gel) will be injected in the same manner as in the control group. However, photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) using a diode laser (wavelength 630-670 nm, 25 mW, 1.875 J/cm² for 20 seconds) will be applied before and after the injection. Laser application will be repeated at every follow-up appointment to promote tissue healing, angiogenesis, and papillary regeneration.
Hyaluronic Acid Gel Injection
This arm includes the control sites (e.g., right maxillary quadrant) in each participant. The interdental papilla with Class I deficiency will be treated using 0.2 mL of 0.8% commercial hyaluronic acid gel, injected 2-3 mm apical to the papilla tip. This is a commonly used non-surgical soft tissue filler in periodontal and esthetic procedures. No photobiomodulation therapy will be applied in this arm.
