1. A method of producing a synthetic bone graft material, comprising:
- mixing a calcium source and a phosphorus source to form a mixture, wherein the calcium source is selected from the group consisting of calcium oxide, calcium carbonate, calcium hydroxide, calcium fluoride, calcium nitrate, and combinations thereof, and wherein the phosphate source is selected from the group consisting of phosphorous pentoxide, phosphate (PO43−
), pyrophosphate, compounds thereof, and combinations thereof;
forming the mixture into a pellet; and
providing an ignition source to the pellet in an inert atmosphere to form the synthetic bone graft material, wherein an ignition temperature is less than about 100°
