Summary

Evaluation the patient satisfaction and dimensional stability of upper removable partial denture constructed from two different flexible thermoplastic materials.(BRE-FLEX and PEEK).

Conditions

  • Patient Satisfaction

Interventions

OTHER

PEEK

Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a synthetic, tooth colored polymeric material that has been used as a biomaterial in orthopedics for many years but recently used as removable prosthetic material. Advantages of this polymer material are elimination of allergic reactions, high polishing qualities, low plaque affinity, and good wear resistance. It has been proven that it shows high mechanical and biological properties. Studies evaluating the properties of this material are limited and need more clinical tests.

OTHER

Bre.flex

Bre.flex is a nylon-based thermoplastic material, composed of nylon PA 12 (polyamide).Nylon exhibits high physical strength, heat resistance and chemical resistance. It can be easily modified to increase stiffness and wear resistance. Nylon resin can be semi-translucent and provides excellent esthetics but it is a little more difficult to adjust and polish.
