Abstract
Biomaterials engineered at the nano level play a significant role in human health care, in particular bone - related therapy, because of their unique functional properties. In this work we explained bone grafting, bone healing, Preparation of hydoxy apatite (HA) and finite element model for bone grafting and simulation. Finite Element Model (FEM) is useful for surgery and reduces failures. The main aim of this study is to provide a patient specific model where the surgical gestures were considered and to evaluate its relevance as a predictive tool.
