Maxillofacial disfigurement can be congenital, developmental, traumatic or because of ablative surgery. Such defects compromise appearance, function and render an individual, incapable of leading a relatively normal life and affect his\her psyche. As the patients quality of life is altered; social integration becomes difficult and the expectation to return to ?normalcy? collapses. The prognosis for a successful treatment outcome is dependent upon making a correct diagnosis and anticipating issues beyond the realm of dentistry alone. Microvascular surgical reconstruction by free flaps is usually the treatment of choice. However, radiation therapy, anatomic complexity, possibility of recurrence, and procedural complexity may exclude it as an option. Prosthetic rehabilitation over the years has proven its mettle when it comes to such situations. It has considerable advantages; for example, observation for recurrence of disease, esthetic superiority, technical simplicity, and inexpensive care. Over decades several prostheses have been developed for this purpose, through this review our aim is to explain the salient features and the purpose of these prostheses.
