Abstract

Hydroxyapatite (HA) is one of the most studied biomaterials in medical and dental fields as it is the main component of bone and teeth. It can be derived from several sources using different methods of synthesis. This review provides an insight into natural resources for HA and methods that are available for its synthesis.
