The effect of different beverages on the surface characteristics of PEEK and PEKK polymers.
Removable partial dentures can be exposed to chemical agents found in acidic beverages either intermittently or continuously, and this may lead to chemical degradation and changes in surface properties of the denture framework. With the developments in dentistry, framework materials are also developing and diversifying. The clinical performance of PEEK and PEKK polymer-based frameworks is still uncertain.
