Abstrakt: In the light of 15 cases of craniofacial defects due to trauma of carcinomas, the authors propose a new approach of the indications for craniofacial prostheses. Progress in materials (silicons) and treatments of maxillo-facial defects (titanium implants) have renewed the interest in maxillo-facial prostheses in maxillo-facial surgery. The advantages and disadvantages of classical methods of prosthesis fixation (on glasses or adhesives) and modern techniques of extra-oral implants (Swedish) are cause of the recent interest for prostheses in plastic surgery. New implants (German) and easier techniques induce a growing interest for extra-oral implants.
