Abstract: Prosthetic rehabilitation of a completely edentulous patient no longer confines to only replacement of missing teeth. Patients are increasingly demanding improvement in esthetics at the end of treatment. Aging leads to a high impact on external facial esthetics resulting in slumped cheek leading to undesirable facial esthetics. Cheek plumper is a commonly used prosthesis to enhance the support of sunken cheeks providing better esthetics. This clinical report describes a novel technique to fabricate detachable cheek plumber to improve support for sunken cheeks retained with a ball bearing and a new commercially available material.
