A quick method for processing MDX-4-4210 silicone rubber.
An alternative method for processing MDX-4-4210 silicone elastomer that eliminates the recommended de-airing phase has been described. As a result, it is possible to have the processed prosthesis in hand in 30 minutes or less (in small prostheses). In addition, the use of a relatively large and costly vacuum machine is avoided. No clinical differences with respect to stability, strength, or duration between prostheses processed in this manner or the standard method have been noted.
