Prosthetic reconstruction of a facial defect can help to reduce disfigurement and restore the social functioning of the patient. Several methods for holding a prosthesis in place exist, including the use of osseointegrated implants and medical adhesive agents; however, since the treatment options for some patients may be restricted by various health conditions and other limitations, including allergies to adhesive agents, a history of radiation therapy, and financial issues, other options that suit individual demands are required. The objectives of this study were to test the hypothesis that adhesive characteristics could be bestowed on silicone elastomers by altering their catalyst/base silicone ratios (CBR) and to examine the effect of the thickness of the cohesive silicone layer of a prosthesis on its initial adhesive strength.
