“…The most recent publications (from 2010 to 2015) according to the inclusion criteria also showed a rise in the number of studies having natural/artificial aging and outdoor weathering effect compared to without aging. In contrast to only two articles published without any aging, six articles with natural/artificial/accelerated aging and five studies after outdoor weathering had been published since 2010 (Fig ) . This rise in published articles incorporating the effect of outdoor weathering and accelerated aging reflects the concern for advancements in silicone properties under weathering or aging effects to enhance the clinical shelf life of prostheses.…”

Despite the varying research, it seems that the single "ideal" maxillofacial prosthetic material that can provide sufficient resistance against different aging conditions is yet to be identified. Therefore, it is imperative for standardization organizations, the scientific community, and academia to develop modified prosthetic silicones possessing improved physical properties and color stability, limiting the clinical problems regarding degradation of maxillofacial prostheses.

“…Hardness of two silicone elastomers was affected under simulated weathering in tropical climatic conditions. More recently, outdoor weathering in a hot and humid climate was shown to adversely affect the properties of silicone elastomers with TechSil S25 elastomer exhibiting better mechanical durability and color stability in comparison with A‐2186 and MED‐4210 materials …”

It is imperative to overcome the existing variability by establishing unified national or international standards/specifications for maxillofacial prosthetic materials. Standardization organizations or bodies, the scientific community, and academia need to be coordinated to achieve this goal. In the meantime and despite all of these theoretically significant alternatives, clinical practice still faces problems with serviceability of maxillofacial prostheses.

Abstract:Body abnormalities or defects that compromise appearance, function may make an individual, incapable of leading a relatively normal life. Facial disfigurement can be the result of a congenital anomaly, trauma or tumour surgery. Surgical reconstruction may not be possible owing to size or location of the defect. The patient's medical condition or personal desires may also preclude reconstructive surgery. In such cases, prosthetic rehabilitation is indicated. A facial prosthesis restores normal anatomy and appearance, protects the tissues of a defect, and provides great psychological benefits to the patient. A number of materials are available and have been used for fabrication of maxillofacial prosthesis; the aim of this article is to provide some insight about the currently used maxillofacial prosthetic materials.
