Fine powder of $alpha$-tricalcium phosphate, tetracalcium phosphate and dicalcium phosphate were mixed together to prepare self-setting cements which form hydroxyapatite, one of the well-known biocompatible materials, as the end of products of hydration. Hardening behaviour of the cements was examined at the temperature range of 37~$70^{circ}C$ and 150~$250^{circ}C$ under the normal and hydrothermal condition respectively. The conversion of cements into hydroxyapatite was significantly improved ast elevated temperature and the paste was strengtheed by interlocking of hydroxyapatite crystals, indicating that the strength is determined by microtexture rather the amount of conversion of cements into hydroxyapatite.
