DD PeekMED

DD PeekMED – the polymer steel

DD PeekMED is the ideal combination of biocompatibility and ultimate strength. Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) has a modulus of elasticity similar to human bone and is thus extremely wear-resistant. These attributes have made it a highly sought-after material in surgical endoprosthetics. Compared with titanium implants, stress peaks at the interface to the bones are reduced. Dental constructions also benefit from this property. This reduces the load on screw and adhesive bonds of the dental prosthesis as well. An ideal material for heavily load-bearing indications. Its total biocompatibility underscores the material through its inert property against body fluids.

Indication:

e.g. abutments and cervical gingival formers, bar constructions, tertiary constructions, telescope crowns, transversal links (Due to its properties, the material is indicated for permanent use in the oral cavity.)

The Advantages:

• Monomer-free
• Extremely loadable and wear-resistant
• Low density – very light
• Adheres with PMMA
• Suitable for allergy patients
• outstanding sliding qualities (telescopes)
