Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a very powerful biomaterial that is increasingly used in dentistry. It has superior properties, which make it desirable in implantology. The applications of PEEK include finger prosthesis, RPD and FPD framework, and dental implants. Changes in the production of polyketone-based materials have been made to ensure consistent production of polymers for medical applications. PEEK is a high-performance semicrystalline material that has physical properties such as high resilience and strength. It is a tooth-colored material, making it desirable for its aesthetic appearance. Traditional manufacturing methods like injection molding, extrusion, and compression molding are used for PEEK. Despite the high price of the polymer, the additional value that PEEK materials bring by offering the possibility of manufacturing parts include lightweight, strength or toughness and able to survive longer in harsh environments. PEEK has trauma or shock cancelling abilities, fracture resisting abilities, stress distributing ability, osseointegrating abilities, With such great qualities PEEK has an increased demand in the market, and this biomaterial never failes to surprise with its amazing success rate. Even in dentistry PEEK has a wide range of applications which includes, as a dental implants biomaterial, prosthetic material, abutment material, post and core material, crowns, removable partial denture framework. With such a huge range of applications PEEK is said to have been providing an all in one package for dentistry. PEEK biomaterial shows great compatibility with bioactive materials which has proven to be of great help to mankind as not only it is involved in life sciences but also in automotives and aerodynamics as well. The main motto of this review is to know the qualities and the properties of PEEK as a capable implant prosthesis for its application focusing on dental implants. This review tells us about the challenges faced when using this material and benefits and advantages of this biomaterial.
聚醚醚酮（PEEK）是一种非常强大的生物材料，在牙科领域的应用越来越广泛。它具有卓越的性能，使其在种植牙学中备受青睐。PEEK的应用包括手指假体、可摘局部义齿（RPD）和固定局部义齿（FPD）框架以及牙种植体。已经对聚酮基材料的生产进行了改进，以确保为医疗应用持续生产聚合物。PEEK是一种高性能半结晶材料，具有高弹性和强度等物理特性。它是一种牙齿颜色的材料，因其美观的外观而受到青睐。传统的制造方法如注塑成型、挤出成型和压缩成型被用于PEEK。尽管这种聚合物价格高昂，但PEEK材料通过提供制造零件的可能性所带来的附加价值包括重量轻、强度或韧性高，并且能够在恶劣环境中使用更长时间。PEEK具有创伤或减震能力、抗断裂能力、应力分布能力、骨整合能力。凭借这些优异的品质，PEEK在市场上的需求不断增加，这种生物材料以其惊人的成功率总能带来惊喜。即使在牙科领域，PEEK也有广泛的应用，包括作为牙种植体生物材料、修复材料、基台材料、桩核材料、牙冠、可摘局部义齿框架。由于应用范围如此广泛，PEEK据说为牙科提供了一站式解决方案。PEEK生物材料与生物活性材料显示出良好的兼容性，这已被证明对人类有很大帮助，因为它不仅涉及生命科学，还涉及汽车和空气动力学领域。本综述的主要目的是了解PEEK作为一种适用于牙种植体的功能性植入假体的品质和特性。这篇综述向我们介绍了使用这种材料时面临的挑战以及这种生物材料的益处和优势。
