ARK-BioPEEK dental discs are precision CAD/CAM-engineered PEEK polymer discs used for implant-borne fixed and removable dental frameworks. They provide superior shock absorption, reduce inflammation, and support high implant survival rates with reduced bone loss compared to metal frameworks.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Patients fitted with full-arch implant-supported fixed hybrid prostheses using these discs experience high implant survival rates and up to three times less marginal bone loss compared to metal frameworks, supporting long-term oral health and prosthesis stability.
The material’s physical properties include a glass transition temperature around 147°C and a melt temperature near 338°C, ensuring excellent thermal stability during processing and clinical use. ARK-BioPEEK dental discs exhibit high tensile strength, flexural modulus, and impact resistance, providing the mechanical durability needed for demanding oral environments.
Biocompatibility is rigorously tested and certified according to ISO 10993 standards, showing no genotoxicity, sensitization, or systemic toxicity, making ARK-BioPEEK safe for long-term implantation. The material’s low density (approximately 1.29 g/cm³) contributes to lightweight prostheses that enhance patient comfort without compromising strength.
Key benefits include:
Shock Absorption: Protects implants and surrounding bone from excessive occlusal forces.
Reduced Inflammation: Minimizes peri-implant disease risk for improved soft tissue health.
High Implant Survival: Clinical studies report excellent long-term success rates.
Lower Marginal Bone Loss: Up to 3x less bone resorption compared to metal frameworks.
CAD/CAM Precision: Enables highly accurate, customized prosthetic frameworks.
Biocompatible & Safe: Complies with international medical standards for implant materials.
ARK-BioPEEK dental discs are ideal for dental laboratories and clinicians seeking innovative, patient-friendly materials for implant-supported prosthetics. By combining mechanical strength, biological safety, and ease of digital fabrication, these discs represent the future of dental framework materials.
Choose ARK-BioPEEK dental discs for implant-borne dental frameworks that deliver lasting performance, enhanced patient outcomes, and streamlined CAD/CAM manufacturing.
