In conventional segmental sandwich osteotomy technique the moving the transport segment inferiorly to increase the vertical height causes the segment to move bucco-palatally, increasing the horizontal defect. So using the computer guided in segmental sandwich osteotomy and fixation the transport segment hopefully will reduce the bucco-palatal tipping.

segmental sandwich osteotomy will be done for vertically deficient ridges in anterior area of the maxilla. Either using surgical guides (Computer guide segmental sandwich osteotomy technique) for study group and conventional segmental sandwich osteotomy technique for control group.
bucco - palatal tipping
calculate the amount of bucco-palaltal tipping of mobilized transport segment after 6 months in mm by cone beam CT between both groups.
Time frame: 6 months
marginal bone loss
calculate marginal bone loss in mm by cone beam CT between two groups
Time frame: 6 months
