Hydroxyapatite Implants - Zygomatic Bone Augumentation?

xrav
Has anyone got practice/experience with this material in augumentation of the cheekbone and zygomatich arch ? What are the adventages and disadventages of using that kind of implants ? it's very interesting material. I heard that installed hydroxyapatite implant changes into normal bone over time Hence, it sounds, that it's better than other implants. It's better to have natural bone than foreign object in the body
