The graft extraction site is associated with which mineral crystals?

Calcium Apatite Crystals

Bone tissue gets its hardness from an inorganic mineral phase: calcium phosphate crystals arranged as hydroxyapatite. At a graft extraction site, the healing process deposits these calcium apatite crystals, forming the mineral backbone of the new bone and graft material. This crystal type is what provides rigidity and stability to the regenerating area. Other minerals listed aren’t the typical mineral component of bone, so they aren’t the crystals associated with graft healing.
