Abstract

Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a polymer that has a comprehensive range of possible uses in dental treatment. The goal of this study was to compile research findings on the substance of dental claims and highlight the upcoming predictions of PEEK in clinical dentistry. PEEK is a novel polymeric material that is yet in its preliminary stage of evolution. Biomolecules are elastic materials with remarkable mechanical strength, barrier properties, and heat resistance compared to other matrix materials. The efficacy of PEEK in clinical dentistry has been acknowledged. Polyetherketone (PEKK) and PEEK are the most commonly mentioned members of the polyaryletherketone (PAEK) family. PEEK has also found significant use in dentistry, notably in prosthodontics and implant dentistry. It also offers exceptional mechanical qualities, including high strength and toughness, making it ideal for dental implants and prostheses. It can endure the stresses of chewing and grinding, resulting in long-lasting restorations. PEEK's tooth-colored look and ability to simulate natural tooth translucency make it suitable for use in dental prostheses such as crowns and bridges. This makes it a more esthetically acceptable alternative to standard metal-based repairs.
