Abstract:
Various materials have been used over time in prosthetic dentistry. However, due to the evolution of science and knowledge, new materials are being brought to the forefront. Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) is a polymer with many potential applications in dentistry. The use of PEEK has become increasingly more common in dental practice; its favorable properties have made it a compelling alternative biomaterial in restorative dentistry. The current trend is moving towards the use of metal-free restorations and biomaterials which exhibit advanced properties in the complex oral environment. This review paper presents and summarizes clinical applications of PEEK in contemporary dentistry.
