cheekpieces

Bridle's lateral straps

Cheekpieces are the side parts of something that rest against or frame the cheeks.

On a horse's bridle, they're the straps running down each side of the face, connecting the headpiece to the bit.

On a helmet or headgear, cheekpieces are protective panels covering the sides of the face: The Roman helmet's bronze cheekpieces were hinged for removal.
