Our study offers a potentially cost-effective way for coating implant materials with highly ordered fluoride apatite structures using a low temperature wet chemical process. These coatings direct the hierarchical organization, coverage, and size of the nanocrystals. Furthermore, our results convey that titanium and sapphire, whether pre-treated or not, can produce bioactive coatings. These hierarchical apatite coatings could play a significant role in improving the osseointegration and biocompatibility of dental and orthopedic implants.
