Hydroxyapatite coating

Hydroxyapatite coating is a thin layer of a mineral that closely resembles the natural mineral found in human bones and teeth. It is applied to the surface of implants, such as dental or orthopedic implants, to promote better integration with the body’s bone tissue. This coating encourages faster and stronger bonding by encouraging bone cells to grow onto the implant, improving stability and durability. Essentially, hydroxyapatite coating helps implants become more compatible with the body, leading to improved healing and longer-lasting results.
