PEEK (polyetheretherketone) is a semi-crystalline linear polycyclic thermoplastic material which is considered as a strong biomaterial. It can be applied in dental implants as implant superstructure, abutment or body. There is current research on reinforcing PEEK material by additives and surface modifications. PEEK is a dominant of PAEK (poly-aryl-ether-ketone) polymers that possess high thermal stability …
