Currently, PEEK has been progressively applied in implant dentistry and further research and a greater number of controlled clinical trials on PEEK implant is required to understand the response of peri-implant soft tissue to PEEK material so that it can replace titanium in future.

Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Levels of IL-1beta, TNF-alpha, IL-6 in GCF and PICF between natural tooth, Titanium site, PEEK site At 24,48,72 hours and 7 days after implant placement using a multiplexed bead immunoassay. The results were calculated with Bio-Plex Manager Software, and the cytokine levels were determined as the amount (pg) per site. | — |
