title: [Hydroxylapatite ceramics--a bone-like biomaterial. Preliminary report].
abstract: Inorganical materials are being increasingly tried out in surgery and periodontal surgery for reconstructing bone defects. This paper discusses the biocompatibility and biofunctionality of different implant materials and presents a new hydroxyapatite ceramic material, of which a good bioactive behaviour is expected.
