Exclusion Criteria
- patients who are smokers, health compromised (such as diabetics, with bone disorders, immunocompromised, known with blood dyscrasias) will be excluded from the trial. Patients with drug history of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, anti-inflammatory (in last 30 days), antibiotic therapy in last 3 months and those women who are pregnant will also be excluded.
Other exclusion criteria will be patients with hypodontia, impacted/ectopic canines, extracted first molars, and patients who may discontinue the trial with or without assigning any reasons and those not consenting to participate in the research.

Group Intervention Description EXPERIMENTAL Platelet rich fibrin Only the test side that will be intervened with i-PRF will be obtained from the upper liquid layer and will be placed in dental injectors using a 27 mm gauged needle. During the first application the amount of i-PRF will be standardized as 4 mL and injected through intra-ligamental into the disto-buccal and disto-palatal side of the canine tooth (2 mL for each side) and at the time of second intervention i.e 8th week form the baseline intramucosal injection will be administered equidistant from the maxillary canine and second premolar, 2ml on buccal side and 2ml on palatal side) after anesthetizing the region with local anesthesia (2% Lignocaine). CONTROL Platelet rich fibrin On control side saline was injected using a 27 mm gauged needle. During the first application the saline was injected through intra-ligamental into the disto-buccal and disto-palatal side of the canine tooth (2 mL for each side) and at the time of second intervention i.e 8th week form the baseline intramucosal injection will be administered equidistant from the maxillary canine and second premolar, 2ml on buccal side and 2ml on palatal side) after anesthetizing the region with local anesthesia (2% Lignocaine).
