In vitro assessment of polyetheretherketone for an attachment component for an implant-retained overdenture

Three-dimensional finite element analysis of the biomechanical behaviour of different dental implants under immediate loading during three masticatory cycles

“…Zr implants posed relatively higher fracture risks, whereas, in the other three implant systems, the abutments presented the highest risk. Notably, PEEK abutments exhibited maximum von Mises stress values approaching their compressive strength limit, indicating a significantly heightened risk of damage [ 42 ].…”

Mechanical, chemical and biological properties of PLA 3D printer: A systematic review

“…It stands out for being chemically inert, having good resistance to wearing, being insoluble in most conventional solvents at room temperature and having a low affinity for biofilm adhesion (Panayotov et al, 2016;Papathanasiou et al, 2020). It is therefore used in the manufacture of removable partial dentures, obturators, fixed crowns and implants (Ye et al, 2021;Najeeb et al, 2016;da Silva et al, 2022). Ye et al, 2021 manufactured prostheses for patients with maxillectomy defects based on PLA and PEEK and when analyzing density, biocompatibility, modulus of elasticity and resistance, they observed that PEEK is the material of best choice as it has lower density, good biocompatibility, modulus of elasticity similar to cortical bone, adequate resistance, such that PEEL was characterized as a suitable material for the manufacture of weight-bearing obturator prostheses, for example.…”
