Abstract

Polyurethane was also employed in its production. However, there were several disadvantages to this type of material, therefore it lost its popularity. Despite having a higher tear resistance than silicone elastomer, it is still exclusively utilized for lining silicone prostheses. Although silicone materials are more widely used than other materials for the reconstruction of maxillofacial prostheses, there are many unfavorable issues that arise after use, like discoloration and degradation. Thus, the study of material characteristics and behavior is necessary to fabricate prostheses for patients with the best possible outcome.
