Abstract
⺠Zirconia surface after various treatments was analyzed by SEM, contact angle and surface roughness measurement, and compared. ⺠Both mirror polishing and porcelain layering look similarly smooth. ⺠24-h acid treatment induced much more surface roughening with the 50-100 nm particulate roughness than tribochemical treatments. ⺠Experimentally attained fracture surfaces cracks were formed straight in most part and in some places curved or twisted into S or Ω form. ⺠Clinically occurred fracture exhibited the scab-like surface.
