guided ridge splitting, atrophic maxilla, osseodensification drills.
Brief summary
Assessing whether is there a difference between computer-guided ridge splitting and conventional technique with simultaneous implant placement in patients with maxillary width deficiency.
Detailed description
Two groups one treated with ridge splitting using guided surgery and the other one treated with freehand surgery and both groups had simultaneous dental implants the first one had guided placement and the other one was freehand.
Interventions
ridge splitting to increase bone width in atrophic maxilla with simultaneous implant placement

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
