Evaluation of some mechanical properties of a new silicone elastomer for maxillofacial prostheses after addition of intrinsic pigments
Objective: The approximate life span of a silicone maxillofacial prosthesis is as short as 1.5–2 years of clinical service, then a new prosthesis should be fabricated. The most common reason for re-making the prosthesis is silicone mechanical properties degradation. The aim of this study was to asse...
