The occurrence of cranial injuries has increased tremendously and due to awareness amongst the population in concern to aesthetics requiring the skull reconstruction, rehabilitation of these defects has also increased in this modern age. Rehabilitation of these defects with prosthesis only acts as a protective shell but also improves the neurological status of the patient. These cranial defects require surgical correction or repair which is named as Cranioplasty. Its aim not merely lies in aesthetically rehabilitating the defect but mainly providing relief to the psychological problems but also improves the patient__ampersandsignrsquo;s social acceptance and performances. With the evolving trends in leaps and bounds, newer biomedical tools technologies and materials are made available to the surgeons and the Prosthodontists for a better outcome in both aesthetics and functions. This article describes a series of case reports on restoring the defect along with the psychological confidence in the patients. One of the techniques using bone cement in combination with the poly-methyl methacrylate is used, which is the novelty of this case report series. The management team constituted of Prosthodontists and neurosurgeons, thereby improving his neurological status and cosmetics.&#13;
