PEEK offers a practical alternative to metal for the fabrication of traditional dental prostheses.
The Polyetheretherketone PEEK is a high-performance polymer tried and tested in many medical fields. PEEK is a semi-crystalline thermoplastic with excellent mechanical and chemical resistance properties even under very high temperatures.
Because of its sturdiness, this component has gained popularity for an increasing number of patients and users in the dental prosthetic field. In dentistry, PEEK is a premium innovative prosthetic solution for either fixed prostheses, removable or screwed-in.
PEEK, well known for its very good mechanical properties, its stability under high temperatures and its exceptional chemical resistance, is bio-inert, compatible with all tissues, non-cytotoxic, electrically non-conductive and thermally insulating. These properties prevent all intra-oral reactions, which makes it the ideal material for oral cavity usage.
