Two types of hydroxyapatite (HA) implants have been developed: an HA‐coated implant and
a dense HA implant. For a longer in situ life span, the HA implant must remain chemically …

In our previous comparative push‐out test of HA‐coated implants and dense HA implants in
dog bone, the ratio of the push‐out value of the HA‐coated implant to that of the dense HA …

There are many controversies about the long‐term prognosis of hydroxyapatite (HA)‐coated
implants. Failure may be related to compositional and structural changes of the coating …

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to evaluate the early osseointegration of
hydroxyapatite (HA)–coated implant. STUDY DESIGN: Twelve adult male miniature pigs …

Purpose: The level of crystallinity in hydroxyapatite (HA) is thought to be responsible for its
degradation in the physiologic milieu. The purpose of this study was to compare the in vivo …

Purpose: No consensus exists on the long-term performance of hydroxyapatite (HA)
coatings on dental implants. The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term stability of …

Concerns have been raised about the degradation of hydroxyapatite (HA) coatings on
dental implants over time. It has been speculated that the resorption of HA could produce a …

A high-density hydroxyapatite (D-HAP) ceramic dental implant that had functioned for more
than 5 years was studied, using light and electron transmission microscopy, after it was …

Two implant types of hydroxyapatite (HA) currently are available for dental implants: dense
HA‐cemented titanium (Ti) and HA‐coated. It has been shown in previous reports that there …

Hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated implants were developed to promote osseointegration of
titanium implants and to overcome the mechanical drawbacks of solid HA implants. Although …
