Experiments show that the collagen fibers of bone interweave in the porosity of implants, which were strengthened by hydroxyapatite crystal. The collagen fibers were bound to the porous layer implant and the binding strength was enhanced by hydroxyapatite crystal. The remodelling state of bone in pores of implant and around the interface play a key role in determining the fatigue strength and the life span of the interface between bone and implant.
