In addition to being stable in the physiological environment, titanium oxides increase calcium ion interactions, which are important for protein and subsequent osteoblast adhesion ^[1]. Enhanced bone bonding can be achieved with bioactive materials that form a stable unit with bone through a spontaneous formation of hydroxyapatite (HA) on their surface. https://biomedpharmajournal.org/vol8octoberspledition/nano-hdroxyapatite-particulate-graft-in-immediate-implant-placement-a-review-of-10-cases/ Hydroxyapatite Dental implant Osseointegration
