Study on Polyether-ether-ketone (PEEK) dental implant, future alternatives to Titanium

Abstract Dental implant can be defined as the process of inserting an artificial tooth in place natural tooth. This consists a) abutment b) Custom made crown and (c) Implant. implants are two major types Endosteal Subperiosteal Implant, endosteal is more widely used nowadays very rare. Apart from types, it also has variety materials usage. The titanium zirconia. Both zirconium have lots disadvantages, to overcome those we use PEEK that polyether-ether-ketone. many advantages like Flexibility, Radiolucency, Aesthetic features, Thermal resistance, Cost-Efficient its Biocompatibility. One main factor responsible for selection dental material Osseointegration. all make us see a reliable alternative present long life insoluble having low moisture absorption, density (1.32 g/cm3), elastic modulus. study shows mechanical analysis abutments.
