Zirconia Outperforms PEEK in Marginal Accuracy: Implications for Dental Restorations

Posted: January 1, 2025
This study compared the marginal accuracy of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) and zirconia copings fabricated using CAD/CAM technology. Zirconia copings showed superior marginal accuracy over PEEK copings in this in vitro study. Both materials demonstrated vertical marginal discrepancies within the clinically acceptable limit, but zirconia performed better. The findings highlight the importance of material selection and CAD/CAM technology in achieving precise marginal fit for dental restorations.
