Dental Disc made with PEEK polymer is a shock-absorbent, permanent solution for implant borne, fixed and removable prosthetic frameworks made with precision through CAD/CAM workflows.
BIOMATERIAL PROPERTY
1. Less inflammation
Biological complications including peri-implant disease avoided in most patient cases with PEEK prostheses.
2. High implant survival
Clinical studies demonstrate a high rate of implant survival in patients with a full-arch implant-supported fixed hybrid PEEK prosthethic.
3. Reduced bone loss
Up to 3x-lower marginal bone loss compared to metal framework implants.
