Combination of calcium phosphate and calcium carbonate in the bones and skeleton; comprises the majority of bone crystals.<\/p>\n

\n

the calcium- and phosphorus-containing compound that constitutes the bulk of the mineral structure of bones and teeth. In teeth it is soluble in the acids of soft drinks or carbohydrate fermentation, but it becomes decay-resistant fluoroapatite after combining with fluoride ions present in fluoridated water or fluoride toothpastes.<\/p>\n

\n

A substance composed of calcium phosphate, forming a complex that serves as the fundamental mineral constituent of bone.<\/p>\n

\n

Hydroxyapatite is a complex crystalline structure of calcium phosphate that naturally exists in the body, forming a significant part of bones and teeth. A man-made version of hydroxyapatite is utilized as a calcium supplement to counteract bone loss when there’s an insufficient intake of dietary calcium.<\/p>\n
