In our study new biomaterial is created from deproteinised hydroxyaptite and endodentic cement, its mechanical properties were tested. Material was implanted subcutaneous in rats, then histological and biocompatability tests were performed. Results indicate that stuff has good mechanical properties, short setting time and gradual resorption creating porosity and ability to integrate in bone.1107844enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessnatural hydroxyapatiteendodontic cementmodulus of elasticityultimate stressultimate strainbiocompatibility3.1 Basic medicine2.5 Materials engineering1.3.
