Abstract: | Hydroxyapatite is part of the group of ceramic materials called "apatite".. It has the theoretical chemical formula
(Ca10 (PO4) 6 (OH) 2). Hydroxyapatite may have a hexagonal crystallographic structure (on bones and teeth) or a
monoclinic one (on dental enamel). It can be of natural or synthetic origin. In medical applications, hydroxyapatite is
encountered in various forms such as solid ceramic blocks, porous blocks, granules and sintered powders in a compact or
porous state. |
