5. “The branch of medicine or surgery that deals with the
production and application of artificial body parts”
So a prosthesis is…?
Can you see the prosthesis?
Prosthetic lower limb
Yep, you guessed it. It’s the artificial body part.
9. Lets take making a prosthetic finger as
an example…
Make a cast of the
finger using alginate
Hot wax is poured
into the mold
Wax is swirled around
so it sticks to the
mold
Excess wax is tipped
out and wax left
to dry
Alginate cut away
leaving the wax
prosthesis
The finger is coloured
and ‘accessorised’
10. Step 1: Mix 2 scoops of alginate with 40ml
water to make a paste – like toothpaste
Step 2: Using the spatula spread the paste into
your tube, starting at the lip end
Step 3: Slowly slide in your chosen finger –
don’t touch the sides!
Now wait!
11. Step 4: When the alginate is dry, hold the tube and wiggle your
finger to release it
Step 5: Scrape any remaining alginate out of your bowl and into
the bin!
Step 6: Mix 2 scoops of plaster of paris with 20ml water to make
a liquid – like thick cream
Step 7: Pinch the sides of your bowl and pour the plaster into
the mold. Make sure that the plaster is only touching alginate
– not your tube.
Step 8: Gently tap the tube on the table to remove air bubbles
Now wait!
12. Q1: Why are his eyes covered? Q2: What are those black dots?
