dc.description.abstractObjective: Laser irradiation is an alternative surface treatment method for roughening zirconia surfaces. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of ytterbium-doped fiber laser (YbPL) on zirconia. Background: Zirconia surfaces are resistant to many surface treatment methods, but surface roughness is crucial for adhesion of veneering materials and cements to zirconia. Methods: The zirconia discs were prepared and divided into four groups according to the power of the laser irradiation (5, 12, 17, and 20W). These groups were divided into five subgroups according to the frequency (25, 40, 60, 80, and 100kHz). Surface roughness values were measured with a noncontact profilometer, and the mean Ra values were calculated. Wettability was measured with a goniometer. The surface morphology was observed with a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The changes in the surface crystalline structure were analyzed with X-ray diffractometry. Results: Ra values of all groups were higher than the control group. The highest surface roughness value was at 20W and 100kHz. Best wettability characteristic was observed at 5W and 60kHz. The correlations between Ra and wettability were low but significant. SEM examination of 5W with different frequencies showed no microcracks, however, melted areas were observed. Remaining groups had microcracks and melted layers. A significantly lower T/M-phase transformation was observed in some groups. Conclusions: YbPL irradiation was effective at roughening the zirconia surface. Although laser treatment affected zirconia surfaces and provided surface roughness, the power and frequency should be adjusted to achieve optimum results.en_US
