- Abstract
PEEK stands for Poly Ether Ether Ketone.. It is a semi crystalline polycyclic aromatic linear polymer. It is a white and a radiolucent material that is rigid in nature. PEEK is the latest invention in the field of dentistry. It is known that this material can prove as a substitute for the existing dental materials. It is claimed that this has better properties than other materials. PEEK has been the center of attention for a lot of scientists looking for better alternatives to the existing materials. Various researches and reviews have been carried out in detail to study this material. The role of Poly Ether Ether Ketone in dentistry by itself has been a majorly studied topic. A literature review was carried out using a systematic search strategy and articles were found using keywords. Literature was taken from databases like PubMed and Google Scholar. Articles that discussed the properties of PEEK and its applications were included. Other articles which had data regarding the structure and its advantages were also included. This review summarized the properties of Poly Ether Ether Ketone. Its structure, and other applications in different dental materials were also discussed in detail.
