Peek in Prosthodontics

Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) has emerged as a promising high-performance polymer in contemporary prosthodontics, offering a unique combination of biocompatibility, favorable mechanical properties, low weight, and versatility in digital fabrication. PEEK in Prosthodontics provides a focused overview of the material's properties, processing techniques, surface modifications, and expanding applications in prosthetic dentistry. The book explores the use of PEEK in removable and fixed prostheses, implant-supported restorations, frameworks, and other clinical applications, while discussing its advantages, limitations, and comparison with conventional dental materials. Designed for dental students, clinicians, academicians, and researchers, this book bridges fundamental material science with clinical prosthodontics and highlights the potential of PEEK in modern restorative and digital dental workflows.
