Teeth are vital parts of the oral cavity. They are easy to damage without proper treatment. A material that can be used to treat damage on a tooth is hydroxyapatite. HA can be used on the metal implant, prosthesis to replace bones and teeth, and to produce biocomposite. This research used Finite Element Method and ANSYS workbench 18.1 to simulate the force on dental implant. The material was designed to resemble a tooth shape then simulated as the implant material to repair the damaged tooth. Based on the simulation, hydroxyapatite could be used as the implant because it had the equivalent stress under 100 MPa, 97.417 MPa to be exact, with the total maximum deformation value of 0.0087 mm.
