Biocompatibility and osteogenesis of locally produced B-tricalcium phosphate

β-Tricalcium Phosphate (β-TCP) with molecular formula [β-Ca3(PO4)2] is a synthetic ceramic biomaterial that have been extensively used as a bone graft material in orthopaedic and dental field due to its biocompatibility and properties. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the biocompatibility a...
