There was a significant reduction in bone height of lower ridge of both patients. The reduction of bone height of lower ridge was more obvious in female patient. The research clarified the importance of using heat-cured soft lining of complete denture in atrophied ridges of patients suffering from Papillon Le Ferve syndrome with follow-up short intervals
