Maxillofacial Prostheses is a recently approved Specialty at the National School of Dentistry, National University of Mexico (UNAM). On April 30th 1997, its creation was approved by the Academic Council of Biological, Chemical and Health Sciences Area {Consejo Académico del Área de las Ciencias Biológicas, Químicas y de la Salud (CAABQYS)}. Its creation arose from the need to provide rehabilitating treatment to patients afflicted with large sized defects within the oral cavity, the aforementioned defects being the product of genetic malformations, surgically acquired defects as well as oncological mutilations or trauma.
