The first region to give information about people and to be recognized first is the facial region. For these reasons, the face has always been significant historically. The mouth is one structure which significantly affects the appearance of the face. People regularly appeal to dentists to meet their aesthetic demands. For example, some people do not pay attention to the health and appearance of their rear teeth, but they do give attention to frontal decay, malformation, or shape problems and want them to be treated as soon as possible. The main motivation for this is to have a beautiful and attractive face because the facial region contributes, positively or negatively, to the selfesteem and self-respect of people, which cause people to feel better and also positive effects on social relationships and achieving life goals.

Surgery on malignant tumors in the head-neck region generally causes large tissue defects. Maxillofacial prostheses appear as an alternative for cases where surgical reconstruction cannot be applied. In previous periods, retention of the maxillofacial prosthesis has been generally made by using liquid- or spray-formed adhesives, adhesive bands, eyeglass connection, and hard or soft tissue retardations. Osseo-integrated implants used in treatment of edentulous cases are used for reinforcing facial prostheses and providing retention and stability.
