HISTORY
 Early records indicate that artificial eyes,ears,and
noses were found on Egyptian mummies.
 The Chinese also made facial restorations with
waxes and resins of various types.
 In sixteenth century, Tycho Brahe , an astronomer
lost his nose and replaced it with an artificial nose
made of silver and gold.
 The London Medical Gazette of 1832 describes
the case of the “Gunner with the Silver Mask”.
This case demonstrated that metals could be used
in maxillofacial prosthesis.
 To produce light weight metallic restorations , the
electrode position of various kinds of metals on a
wax matrix was also introduced.

 Ambroise Pare : the first to use an obturator to
close palatal perforations.
 In 1728 : Pierre Fauchard used perforations of
palate to retain artificial dentures
 In 1880 : Kingsley described artificial appliances
for the restoration of congenital as well as
acquired defects of the palate , nose and orbit.
 In 1894 : Tetamore described and illustrated nine
cases of nasal deformities that received prosthetic
restorations.He stated that these artificial noses
were made of a “very light plastic material” that
approximated the natural colour. They were
secured on the face by bow spectacles.
 At the end of 19th
century , certain workers were
making facial restorations with vulcanite.

www.indiandentalacademy.com
IMPRESSION TECHNIQUES
ORBITAL IMPRESSION:
 Place the patient in a dental chair in the supine position.
 Green towels should be placed to protect the patient’s
clothes from spillage.
 Any cavities or tissue undercuts to be packed with vaseline
gauze.
 Areas of impression should be defined using ordinary
adhesive foam draught excluder tape.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 Patient is instructed to breathe gently through the mouth while you pinch the
nose to block the airway. Then the nostrils should be blocked off with cotton
wool plugs.
A thinner mix than for oral impression
is used to allow the material to flow
from the forehead down into the cavity
using spatula. Before the alginate sets
cotton wool or gauze napkins are
placed into the alginate to facilitate
retention for plaster of paris backing.www.indiandentalacademy.com
 When the alginate has set , plaster of paris mixed to a cream
consistency is poured on top.This is then allowed to set
thoroughly
 When removing the impression , the excluder should be
peeled away from the skin. The patient is then instructed to
wrinkle and screw his/her face. This will break the seal of
the alginate and the impression may be lifted off from the
forehead downwards.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 Any gauze packing will adhere to the alginate , but it should
be insured that nothing is left in the cavity area , by
counting each piece on removal.
 Any gauze or packing is removed from the impression and a
good quality stone plaster is poured. When set the
impression is removed and the model is trimmed.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
IMPRESSION FOR EAR PRSTHESIS:
 Marks should be made with an indelible pencil in the defect area. These
marks are :
1. The junction of the helix
with the side of the head
2. The junction of the lobe
with the side of the head
Green towels should be placed to protect the patient’s clothes from spillage
 Patient should be positioned on their side to allow full access to the area.
 Various materials that can be used to define and contain the impression are :
 1. Plasticine strips
 2. Red boxing-in wax
 3. Draught excluder
 4. Margarine tubs
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 Before pouring the alginate the external auditory canal
should be blanked off with cotton wool or vaseline gauze.
 Alginate mixed to a fluid consistency is then poured. There
will be no need to provide a plaster backing as the tub will
allow a good thickness of alginate.
 To enable a good carving to be made , an impression of the
existing natural ear should be taken. Cut a section out of the
tub just large enough to allow the ear to pass through.
Follow the previous stages when pouring the alginate ,
except that pour the back part of the helix first , so as to
provide support for the helix when the full amount of
alginate is added.
 Both the impressions are then poured in the normal way.

SILICONE ELASTOMERS
 synthetic materials
 constitute a special class of chemical polymers,
polydimethylsiloxane
 composed of an alternating chain of silicone and
oxygen atoms.
 by adjusting the length of this silicon-oxygen
chain…..
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 can only be produces synthetically.
 two-step process: creating a carbon-silicon bond,
then making the silicon-oxygen bond that forms
the chain.
 In the first step, an organic chloride vapor +hot
silicone powder in the presence of a copper
catalyst series of molecules (carbon, silicon,
and chlorine atoms.)
 In the second step, the chlorine is replaced with
oxygen through a process of hydrolysis and
distillation to produce the silicone product .
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 the silicon oxygen bond is much stronger than the
carbon-carbon bond of organic polymers, silicones
make better electric insulators and are more resistant
to oxidation.
 In addition, the silicon-oxygen chain is easily
twisted, and the organic side groups can rotate
freely around the bonds. As a result, silicones have
weak forces of attraction, low surface tension, and
low freezing points.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 Silicone elastomers retain their elasticity, strength
and flexibility in temperatures ranging from
-108ºF (-78ºC) to higher than 570ºF (300ºC).
 silicone polymer is vulcanized; this changes it
from a liquid or putty like paste to a solid rubber.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
RTV Silicone Elastomer
 composed of comparatively short chain
silicone polymers…. partially end-blocked
with hydroxyl groups.
cross-linking agent such as
tetraethyoxysilane (ethyl orthosilicate).
addition of a catalyst such as stannous
octoate condensation takes place.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Advantages:
Simple fabrication technique.
Faster fabrication technique, compared to
other materials.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 Disadvantages:
 Air entrapment, while mixing with the catalyst.
 Inadequate tear resistance.
 Incorporation of silica to improve tensile strength,
compromises translucency of the material, making
intrinsic coloring difficult.
 “ZIPPER EFFECT ”
 Silicones are stiffer than flesh.

VENTURED STRUCTURAL
POLYMERS
 Silphenelyenes: are combinations of carbon and
silicone polymers and therefore they have many
advantages of both the polymers.
 Consists of 3 unit kit – base resin,
tetrapropoxy silane (cross linking agent) & an
organotin catalyst.
 Formulated as viscous, pour able, RTV liquid.
Advantages:
 High tensile strength & low modulus of elasticity.
 Feels like skin
 Incorporation of fillers  ↑tear strength
www.indiandentalacademy.com
COLORATION
 Intrinsic coloring:
 According to Chalian et al (1972, 1974), intrinsic
coloring in HTV silicones is accomplished with a
milling machine.
Metallic oxides/pigmented silicone concentrates are
generally used & red fibers may be incorporated to
simulate blood vessels.
Coloring in RTV silicones (MDX 4-4210) is
accomplished by adding various dry earth
pigments.
 According to Chalian et al (1972) & Beder (1974),
the intrinsic colouring is more effective than
extrinsic techniques due to longer service life.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 Extrinsic coloring
 J.E.Ouellete (1969) described spray coloring of
silicone elastomer maxillofacial prosthesis.
Pigments selected to match the patients’ skin are
mixed in proper proportions with clear elastomers &
solvents & the mixture is sprayed on to the prosthesis
until the desired color is obtained.
 According to Schahf (1970), the colour easily peals
off or rubs off during manipulation of the prosthesis
or during daily cleansing.
He introduced tattooing for surface characterization
using standard artist’s oil paints which were applied
on to the prosthesis surface using tattooing machine.

CAD-CAM MAXILLO-FACIAL
PROSTHESES
 Acquisition of the “Facial Impression”- A laser
data of the patients facial defect.
The unit consists of two laser beams and two
change coupled device camera. Then the image
from the camera is transferred into an image
processor to generate three dimensional image.
 Production of wax model- Two alternative
CAD-CAM three dimensional modeling
techniques i.e. Laser litrographaic model and
numerically controlled milling model are
connected to fabricate the prototype wax model.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 Completing the final silicone facial prostheses-
The prototype wax model is tried on the patients
face to check for the fit and proper adaptation of
the margins as well as the shape. The wax model
is then flasked and fabricated in the conventional
way.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE
 Dorsey J. Moore et al (1977) in their study
evaluated a polymeric material MDX-4-4210
Elastomer (which was not in use at that time) for
its modulus of elasticity, resistance to tear
propagation and hardness. They compared this
material to Silastic 382 (commonly used for
maxillo-facial prostheses).They concluded that
– MDX 4-4210 had a modulus of elasticity approximately
one-fourth that of Silastic 382.
– MDX 4-4210 had better resistance to tear propagation
than Silastic 382.
– MDX-4-4210 was softer than silastic 382.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 Juan B.Gonzalez (1978) in his study evaluated
polyurethane elastomer with polyvinyl resins
and polysiloxanes. The criteria used for
comparison were the properties an ideal
material should have. He concluded that
polyurethane was relatively better material
compared to polyvinyl resins and polysiloxanes.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 Juan B.Gonzalez (1978) in his study evaluated the effect
of altering the component ratio of polyurethane on its
physical and mechanical properties, such as, surface
hardness, tensile strength, initial modulus and percentage
of elongation. He concluded that-
– with every increase of 0.1 gms of Part B or the
addition of the catalyst there was an increase in
surface hardness, tensile strength, initial modulus of
elasticity.
– Whereas there was decrease in percentage elongation
with the same alterations in formulations.

 E.R.Doootz, A.Koran, R.G.Craig (1994)
evaluated the effect of accelerated aging on the
physical properties of three maxillo-facial materials
i.e. MDX 4-4210, A-2186, Cosmesil. The samples
were processed according to manufactures
instructions and then stored in humidor for 24 hrs
followed by placement in an accelerated-aging
chamber. Each material was evaluated for tensile
strength, tear resistance, shore A hardness,
percentage of elongation before and after
accelerated aging.www.indiandentalacademy.com
 They concluded that cosmesil substance showed
maximum effect, and MDX 4-4210 the least
change in their properties, of aging.
 -Cosmesil showed a decrease in tensile strength,
decrease in elongation, increased hardness and
 -an increase in tear rersistance.

 Mark A. Pigno, Millicent C. Goldschmidt and James
C. Lemon (1994) evaluated the efficacy of antifungal
agents incorporated into facial prosthetic silicone
elastomer. The purpose of the study was -
1. to determine whether fungal growth is associated
with the black discoloration of the prostheses.
2. to determine the inhibitory effect of antifungal agents
nystatin and clotrimazole incorporated into the silicone .
3. to determine the longevity of the antifungal action.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 They concluded that-
– The SEM studies of the sample revealed the
black discoloration to be associated with fungi
of genus penicillium.
– Clotrimazole inhibited fungal growth even after
repeated testing over several months.
– Nystatin exhibited no inhibitory action.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 J.H.Lai, J.S.Hodges(1999) conducted a study to
evaluate the effect of processing parameters on
physical propeties of the silicone maxillofacial
prosthetic materials.They compared the physical
properties i.e. hardness,tensile srength, ultimate
elongation and tear strength of A-2186 cured in
stainless steel molds and stone molds.
 They concluded that hardness, tensile strength and
ultimate elongation of A-2186 cured in stainless
steel mold is higher than those cured in stone
mold.

 M.G.J.Waters, R.G.Jagger, G.L.Polyzois (1999)
conducted a study to evaluate the wettability and
surface energy of commercially available silicone
material and acrylic material. Contact angle and
surface energies were measured by using a

Plasticine strips  2. Red boxing-in wax  3. Draught excluder  4. Margarine tubs www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 24.  Before pouring the alginate the external auditory canal should be blanked off with cotton wool or vaseline gauze.  Alginate mixed to a fluid consistency is then poured. There will be no need to provide a plaster backing as the tub will allow a good thickness of alginate.  To enable a good carving to be made , an impression of the existing natural ear should be taken. Cut a section out of the tub just large enough to allow the ear to pass through. Follow the previous stages when pouring the alginate , except that pour the back part of the helix first , so as to provide support for the helix when the full amount of alginate is added.  Both the impressions are then poured in the normal way. www.indiandentalacademy.com
