Ridge Augmentation in Atrophic Anterior Maxillary Ridges with a Titanium Reinforced Polytetraflouroethelene Membrane and Anorganic Bovine Bone-Derived Mineral in intervention group and Anorganic Bovine Bone-Derived Mineralwith Particulated Autogenous Bone Chips in control group.

CBCT will be done before surgery, immediate after surgery and 6 month to compare the bone gain in mm.

Bone sample will be collected during exposure after 6 month of surgery by trephine bur to assess the bone quality through histo-morphometric analysis in order to determine the size, shape and orientation of the bony trabeculae, the size and porosity of the bony cortex in addition to the new bone/ bone substitute ratio

• 1ry outcome: Amount of bone gain will be measured using linear measurements from CBCT immediate after surgery and after 6 month.
• 2ry outcome: a bone sample will be collected and analyzed under histo-morphometric analysis.

Inclusion Criteria:

• • Patients with atrophied anterior maxillary ridge area.

  • Age: 18 years and older.
  • Both sexes.
  • No intraoral soft and hard tissue pathology.
  • No systemic condition that contraindicate bone augmentation

Exclusion Criteria:

• • Heavy smokers more than 20 cigarettes per day.(32)

  • Patients with systemic disease that may affect normal healing.
  • Psychiatric problems.
  • Disorders to bone augmentation are related to history of radiation therapy to the head and neck neoplasia.
