In vitro study of effects of aging and processing conditions on colour change in maxillofacial silicone elastomers [PDF]
Background The inherent colour change in maxillofacial silicone elastomers becomes perceptible 6–12 months after fabrication. Determining the factors that accelerate the degradation of the prosthesis can help the clinicians increase its life span ...
