"The predominant ingredient of the inorganic matrix of bone is calcium salts, with the majority existing as large molecules of hydroxyapatite crystals" is TRUE.

Option: A

Step-by-step explanation:

  • A significant element of normal bone and teeth and an essential ingredient.
  • Hydroxyapatite compensates the mineral bone and teeth matrix.
  • It is hydroxyapatite which brings its stiffness to bones and teeth.
  • The inflammation triggered by crystals with hydroxyapatite was referred to as crystal disease with hydroxyapatite.
  • Hydroxyapatite, also termed hydroxylapatite, is a found naturally in calcium apatite mineral type.
  • A well-recognized unexplained etiological systemic problem named as "Hydroxyapatite crystal deposition disease (HADD)" has been caused by para-articular and/or intra-articular HA crystal deposition.
