Upper Extremities
Art and technology come together to offer you the next generation in custom-made cosmetic hands and fingers. Whether you need a complete hand or a partial finger, Otto Bock's Custom Silicone technicians are fully trained to produce a product with superior quality, appearance and durability.
Fingers and hands allow us to feel and grasp objects. Silicon House products provide assistance for these daily life activities all the while meeting cosmetic demands.
Finger prostheses
Visual details play an important role in the fabrication of finger prostheses. The priority here is to make the prosthesis look as real as possible.
Silicon House - a product line that recreates the natural colour and form in painstaking detail.
Customised fingernails are the final detail components that perfect the fingers' overall appearance. Fingernails made of acrylic have an advantage over silicone in that they can be painted.
Partial hand prostheses
Partial hand prostheses are used for hands that were amputated in the knuckle or metacarpus area.
Partial hand prostheses also blend in naturally and harmoniously with the overall physical appearance. The elasticity of the silicone allows the wearer to pull the prosthesis on and off easily, without having to handle bothersome zippers.
Thanks to the translucent and tear-resistant characteristics of the material, the extremely thin transitions to the healthy part of the hand can be custom coloured. This makes the transitions nearly imperceptible. The overall appearance is furthermore optimised by recreated freckles and arteries.
A partial hand prosthesis can also be combined with a cosmetic compensation of the lower arm.
Individual cosmetic covers for arm prostheses
Cosmetic covers for silicone arm prostheses can be custom dyed, therefore approximating a natural look.
Silicone cosmetic covers are more dirt resistant than conventional PVC cosmetic gloves. They can be easily washed with soap and water or sterilised with hot water in case of contamination.
