Due to its unique combination of physico-chemical and biological characteristics, this material is increasingly recognized as an alternative to traditional dental materials.</p> <p>This review focuses on the analysis of PEEK properties, modern methods of its modification, and the assessment of its clinical efficacy in implantology, prosthodontic dentistry, and orthodontics. Special attention is given to the material’s biocompatibility, its aesthetic potential, mechanical properties close to those of bone tissue, and its ability to integrate into biological systems.</p> <p>The key approaches to modifying the PEEK surface to enhance its osteogenic properties and adhesive potential are discussed. It is concluded that PEEK is a highly promising material for aesthetic restorations, and future research should focus on optimizing its bioactivity and clinical efficacy.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Полиэфирэфиркетон (ПЭЭК, англ. PEEK) представляет собой высокоэффективный термопластичный полимер полукристаллической структуры, относящийся к семейству полиарилэфиркетонов (ПАЭК, англ. PAEK). Ввиду уникального комплекса физико-химических и биологических характеристик, данный материал приобретает все более значимую роль в качестве альтернативы традиционным стоматологическим материалам. Настоящий обзор посвящен анализу свойств PEEK, современных методов его модификации, а также оценке клинической эффективности его применения в имплантологии, ортопедической стоматологии и ортодонтии. Особое внимание уделяется биосовместимости материала, его эстетическому потенциалу, механическим свойствам, близким к параметрам костной ткани, и способности к интеграции в биологические системы. Рассмотрены ключевые направления модификации поверхности PEEK для усиления его остеогенных свойств и адгезивного потенциала. Делается вывод о том, что PEEK является высокоперспективным материалом для создания эстетических реставраций, а дальнейшие исследования должны быть сфокусированы на оптимизации его биоактивности и клинической эффективности.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>polyetheretherketone</kwd><kwd>PEEK</kwd><kwd>dental implantology</kwd><kwd>metal-free restorations</kwd><kwd>biocompatibility</kwd><kwd>CAD/CAM</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>полиэфирэфиркетон</kwd><kwd>PEEK</kwd><kwd>дентальная имплантология</kwd><kwd>безметалловые реставрации</kwd><kwd>биосовместимость</kwd><kwd>CAD/CAM</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Volchkova IR.
