Measurement wettability of maxillofacial silicones
Maxillofacial silicone is an important material in maxillofacial prostheses clinics. However there is probability of yeast colonization on maxillofacial silicones. This situation increases the risk of a second infection of patients whose general health status is usually poor.

Prosthetic management of mid-facial defect with magnet-retained silicone prosthesis [PDF]
Background and aim: Mid-facial defect is one of the most disfiguring and impairing defects. A design of prosthesis that is aesthetic and stable can be precious to a patient who has lost part of his face due to surgical excision.
