The atrophatic anterior maxilla present a considerable challenge for both surgical and prosthetic rehabilitation, as it may require bone augmentation to enable implant placement. The techniques proposed for vertical augmentation of the alveolar ridge include distraction osteogenesis, only grafting, and sandwich osteoplasty. Sandwich osteotomy is reported to provide more stable and predictable results with respect to the height of the alveolar ridge. The main advantage of osteotomy techniques that employ Interpositional bone grafts is reported to be the improved blood supply in the augmented region.

the investigators aim to evaluate the radiographical, clinical differences of newly formed bone following vertical maxillary ridge augmentation using sandwich inlay with autogenous bone block from the rums without fixation (study group I) compared to same procedure with fixation (micro plates and screw) (control group). description of intervention: 1\) diagnostic procedure: * All Participant will be selected according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. * Comprehensive clinical examination and understanding of patient's chief complaints will be carried out. * All participants will be informed about the surgical treatment procedure and will provide their written consent to participate in the study. * Preoperative panoramic radiograph will be requested prior as general screening for any pathosis and primary maxillary anterior residual bone height assessment. * A (CBCT) scan will be requested for each patient to confirm amount of horizontal and vertical bone, to exactly measure the amount of bone height and to plan and guide surgical procedures of block graft. * Alginate Impressions of upper & lower jaws will be taken for acquiring diagnostic dental casts. intra-surgical procedure : Harvesting procedures of the mandibular ramus block graft: After administering local anesthesia, a soft tissue incision will be made in the posterior mandible to create an envelope flap similar to that created in a third molar extraction, with an external oblique incision extending anteriorly into the buccal sulcus of the respective molar sites. A mucoperiosteal full-thickness flap will be then reflected with a sharp periosteal elevator, exposing the lateral aspect of the ramus. Osteotomies to take ABB will be performed in the ramus using trephine drills. The size of the block depended on the size of the graft needed. The size of the graft will be adjected with diamond discs under saline irrigation. Donor sites will be closed after the bone graft procedure will be completed. Recipient site preparation: Following the administration of local anesthesia, a soft tissue incision will be performed. After a full-thickness mucoperiosteal flap will be reflected, the alveolar bone exposed. The edentulous area and the residual bone ridge will be prepared carefully to receive the bone graft; the defect dimensions will be measured with a periodontal probe to determine the approximate size of the block graft to be harvested or amount of particle bone graft needed. Three full-thickness bony cuts will be performed. Two vertical stop cuts will be made using a tungsten carbide disc at the distal ends of the mid-crestal bony cut on the facial surface of alveolar ridge; the vertical cuts will be 3 mm from the neighboring teeth. The above-described cuts will be revised using ridge-splitting osteotomes (fine chisels) of sequential width (2 mm, 3 mm) and a lightweight mallet. The rectangular bony segment (transport segment) will be mobilized occlusally and be pedicled on the palatal mucoperiosteum. The autogenous blocks will be fitted between the mobilized segment and the basal bone, and the remining gap will be filled with particulated autogenous bone, in test group; there is no mean of fixation will be used while in the control group the segment will be fixed using micro-plates and screws. Scoring will be done to allow tension-free closure.
