[Recent developments of researches on calcium phosphate cements].

The research of calcium phosphate cement (CPC) has been developing for more than 20 years. In this review, we present a brief introduction to recent advances in researches on apatite CPC, brushite CPC, composite CPC materials; on factors affecting CPC capability and application; and on new application of CPC. The view that emphasizes the significance of studies on CPC with quicker degradation and osteoblast activity is put forward, particularly.
