Hydroxyapatite containing yttria-tetragonal zirconia polycrystals (Y-TZP) with different concentrations were prepared by using the conventional ball-milling technique. Samples prepared from these powders were compacted and sintered at three different temperatures (1250�C, 1400�C and 1600�C). The sin...
