Maxillofacial abnormalities are the most deleterious to a person's self-esteem and quality of life. Restoration of speech, deglutition, and masticatory functions as well as achieving a normal orofacial appearance are the main objectives of rehabilitation of maxillofacial defects. Any prosthesis can be held in place by anatomical, mechanical, chemical, or surgical anchorage, depending on the clinical scenario. Various methods of retention have evolved over a period of time. Osseointegrated implants have been employed to enhance the retention of facial prosthesis, in the last 20 years. The prosthodontist should be familiar with all the available options, to opt for the appropriate retentive method, while planning for the prosthetic rehabilitation for the patient. In all cases of maxillofacial deformities, optimal outcomes could be a challenging task to accomplish, but careful evaluation, clinical decision-making, and planning can result in prosthesis of acceptable quality that might enhance the patient's quality of life.

The facial region defects caused by trauma, accident, tumor or congenital defects are treated with special facial prostheses. Retention is one of the most important factors that determines the success of a maxillofacial prosthesis. Retention has always been a problem in prosthodontics other than esthetics. Increased retention improves comfort as well as the confidence in the patient while wearing a facial prosthesis at work and in social settings thereby improving the long-term prognosis of the prosthesis. In the present article, the methods used for the retention of prostheses from past to present were researched, and the advantages of the retention procedures and the most commonly used current methods, were evaluated. The article describes different types of retentive aids in maxillofacial prosthesis.

In order to restore the appearance and functionality of the eye to those who have lost their sight due to accident, surgery, tumors, or congenital eye problems, orbital prosthesis are essential. Various materials and procedures are employed in the prosthesis's creation. Of the materials that were accessible, resin turned out to be superior. Both utilizing a stock eye and a tailored prosthetic have benefits and drawbacks. We have created a bespoke orbital prosthesis with a bespoke eyeball and sclera through our clinical report. The patient's quality of life was eventually improved by the personalized prosthesis, which also offered an outstanding match, increased comfort, and boosted self-confidence.
