The all-on-4 modified polyetheretherketone treatment approach: A clinical report.

A modified polyetheretherketone (PEEK) implant framework material in combination with prefabricated high-impact poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) veneers was used as an alternative material for the fabrication of a complete maxillary arch implant-supported fixed restoration. The elastic performance of the PEEK framework (elastic modulus of 4 GPa) combined with PMMA veneers may reduce the occlusal forces, protecting the implant-supported restoration and the opposing dentition, especially in all-on-4 treatments, where lack of proprioception and wide interimplant distance are present. Long-term clinical evidence is required before recommending the application as an alternative restorative material for such a prosthesis.
