Abstract
⺠A titanium fixture is implanted into palatal bone of an 18-year-old patient as the unmoved anchorage for the orthodontic treatment. ⺠The fixture is integrated with compact bone with cortical bone-like osteon. ⺠Microbeam X-ray diffraction denotes the crystallinity and orientation of HAp. ⺠X-ray images of c-face in HAp reveal functionally graded distribution of bone quality. ⺠The crystal growth of c-face is caused by propagation of the continuous lateral stress.
