Study Overview
Brief Summary
the goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the new osseo-densification technique works to provide enough bone width and quality prior to implant placement in the upper jaw the main question it aims to answer is: Is the use of osseo-densification protocol better than the standard alveolar ridge widening techniques; regarding efficiency and comfort in obtaining sufficient alveolar ridge width in horizontally atrophic alveolar ridges?
Detailed Description
a new osseo-densification protocol using specially designed Densah burs was compared to conventional hand Osteotome technique to test its efficiency in providing sufficient bone quantity and quality in cases of horizontally deficient maxillary edentulous alveolar ridge sites that require expansion prior to dental implant placement

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
efficiency of ridge widening technique
Time Frame: intraoperative and within 3 days post operative
the amount of ridge width gain is measured both clinically via a caliber and radiographically on CBCT
Secondary Outcomes
- length of surgical procedure(During surgery)
- Value of pain(Immediate post operative)
- primary stability of implant(intra-operative after dental implant placement)
