Effect of calcium carbonate nanoparticles on the bonding strength of maxillofacial silicone to acrylic substrate [PDF]

open access: yesSulaimani Dental Journal, 2016
The clinical life of a maxillofacial prosthesis averages about six months before it needs to be re-fabricated. Most of maxillofacial prosthesis attached to the acrylic resin via adhesive primers detached and have to be re-attached every few months ...

Wettability of silicone rubber maxillofacial prosthetic materials

open access: yesThe Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1999
Statement of problem. Maxillofacial prosthetic materials that contact skin or mucosa should have good wettability. A material that is easily wetted will form a superior lubricating layer between the supporting tissues and, thus, reduce friction and ...

Evaluation of effect of laser etching on shear bond strength between maxillofacial silicone and acrylic resin subjected to accelerated aging process

open access: yesIndian Journal of Dental Research, 2017
Objective: Maxillofacial prosthesis are supported by implants, require a retentive matrix to retain the suprastructure. The retentive matrix is made up of acrylic resin to which the silicone prostheses are anchored by micro-mechanical bond.

Effects of RTC-silicone maxillofacial prosthetic elastomers on cell cultures

open access: yesThe Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1994
The use of a wide variety of materials in the construction of maxillofacial prostheses makes biocompatibility testing a necessity. However, the dental literature contains few reports of biocompatibility testing of maxillofacial prosthetic materials.
