Bone integration capability of nanopolymorphic crystalline hydroxyapatite coated on titanium implants

The mechanism by which hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated titanium promotes bone–implant integration is largely unknown. Furthermore, refining the fabrication of nano-structured HA to the level applicable to the mass production process for titanium implants is challenging. This study reports successful crea...
