Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a natural constituent of bones and igneous rocks. It plays important role in the storage of calcium and phosphorus of vertebrates. HA presents biocompatibility and bioactivity properties, allowing substitutions of its atoms for others. In this work, the substitutions of Cd and Sr in two crystal sites, 1 and 2, of Ca, are studied. Electronic structure calculations (bond order and atomic charge) are performed on pure and Cd/HA and Sr/HA clusters, by using the extended Hückel Theory (eHT), based on non orthogonal tight binding approximations. For a better description of the HA systems, it is used empirical parameters adjusted in order to reproduce known band structure and experimental data on CaO, CdO and SrO oxides. It is shown that site 2 is the preferred substitution site for both, Cd and Sr. This result is discussed in connection with previous experimental and DFT based calculations on the two substituted HA. The present study corroborates previous work which suggested that eHT may provide a reasonable qualitative description of basic electronic properties of both pure and substituted hydroxyapatite materials.
