This book is based on a review of about 2,000 carefully selected articles about hydroxyapatite (HA) materials from about 150 peer-review journals in both engineering and medical areas and presents itself as a typical example of evidence-based learning (EBL). Evidence-based literature reviews can provide foundation skills in research-oriented bibliographic inquiry, with an emphasis on such review and synthesis of applicable literature. Information is gathered by surveying a broad array of multidisciplinary research publications written by scholars and researchers. HA is a very unique material which has been employed equally in both engineering and medical and dental fields. In addition, the name "apatite" comes from the Greek word áðáôù, which means to deceive. What is actually happening inside the apatite crystal structure is based on the unique characteristics of ion exchangeability. Because of this, versatility of HA has been recognized in wide ranges, including bone-grafting substitutes, various ways to fabricate HAs, HA-based coating materials, HA-based biocomposites, scaffold materials, and drug-delivery systems. This book covers all these interesting areas involved in HA materials science and technology.

Bridging the gap between medical/dental and engineering/technology areas, this book organizes and processes the findings from over 2,000 published articles and studies into a coherent and easily accessible manner. The content covers Materials Classifications, Chemical and Electrochemical Reactions, Oxidation, Biological Reactions, Implant-related Biological Reactions, Applications, Fabrication Technologies, Surface Modifications, and Future Perspectives with updated findings, deftly weaving older and newer technologies together to give a clear overview. The author, with extensive work in both academics and industry, helps medical practitioners and students answer a number of practical questions, including: What is titanium?; What type of titanium materials should I use in this case?; Can I use this titanium material for my patient?; Why does this titanium material behave like this? How can I fabricate my design using titanium?; And are there any alternative materials or methods? This book is an essential resource for anyone researching titanium in its fundamental aspects and medical/dental applications. Reviews over 2,000 published articles, drawing information from several types of studies and reports. Provides quick access to the primary literature in this fieldUp-to-date information on nanoscience and nanotechnology developments. Helps readers answer questions about the most appropriate materials and when to use them.
