Giving a natural surface texture to the maxillofacial prostheses is one of the major goals for the maxillofacial prosthodontists. This article describes a technique for application of an antiskid epoxy resin to the surface of the definitive mold before pouring the maxillofacial silicone elastomer. This technique produces evenly distributed and same-size pores that are more similar to the natural appearance of human skin.
