Abstract Replacement for the congenital defect is the major upliftment for the patient in terms of ones well being physically and socially. Maintenance of the prosthesis is other major factor to prevent fungal growth. Therefore, addition of the anti-fungal agent is of utmost importance to silicon prosthesis and to study the physical and mechanical effect of these anti-fungal agents on silicon prosthesis is a key.
A systematic review and meta-analysis was carried out following the PRISMA guideline on various electronic databases, following which the articles that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were sorted and a data analysis was done. Results were tabulated and with the available data the study concluded that addition of anti-fungal agent on maxillofacial silicon had statistically significant influence on physical and mechanical properties.
