Descripción :	We report thermal diffusivity measurements in bull bone and commercial hydroxyapatite (HA), both in powder form, in order to determinate the thermal compatibility between these materials. Besides this, we report a comparison between these measured values and those of metallic samples frequently used in implants, as high purity titanium and stainless steel. Our results show a good thermal compatibility (74%) between HA and bone. Finally, it was obtained a difference of one order of magnitude between the thermal diffusivity values of metallic samples and those values corresponding to bone and HA, this difference is greater in titanium than in stainless steel, which is important to consider in some biomedical and dental applications.
