Abstract

The modern level of knowledge on biomaterials and bioceramics based on calcium orthophosphates is shown. These chemical compounds have special value, since they are the inorganic component of normal and pathological solid tissues in man and mammals. As a result of the high chemical similarity to the solid tissues of mammals, many calcium orthophosphates possess exceptional biocompatibility and bioactivity. These properties of the material are actively being used for developing artificial bone implants.
