A completely edentulous patient undergoes many consequences as a result of loss of teeth among them facial esthetic disfigurement as a result of slumped cheeks is a serious problem as it has got some psychological effect on the patient. There are many lines of treatments available both surgical and non-surgical, this article focuses on nonsurgical management of a patient with slumped cheeks with the fabrication of 4 different types of cheek prop prosthesis.
