An implant is a device used to support the limbs as well as to sustain them in a case of bone fracture. Biocompatible properties of a material are taken into great consideration in the planning process of a medical device. This research aimed to find the endurance of titanium hydroxyapatite material used as an implant material in a developmental and breakthrough part of the medical world. This research used Ansys 18.1 simulation software. The implant was designed and administered with loadings in three variations (700 N, 750 N, 800 N), and given sintering process with three temperature variations (9000C, 11000C, 13000C) into the hydroxyapatite. According to the simulation results, titanium hydroxyapatite material had the equivalent stress of 1.521 MPa, higher than an implant made of only titanium. The overall results showed that titanium hydroxyapatite implant material has a better value compared to titanium material. This result was due to the titanium hydroxyapatite’s material properties that were higher than that of titanium. © 2023 American Institute of Physics Inc.. All rights reserved.
