Ceramics are used in oral rehabilitation; however, these materials are prone to formation of biofilms that may cause periodontal diseases. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of distinct surface treatments on ceramic surface roughness and biofilm formation of oral bacteria (Prevotella intermedia). Eighty-four specimens of the following four ceramic systems were produced LC - leucite-based glass ceramic, LD - lithium disilicate-based glass ceramic, LSZ - glass ceramic based on zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate, and ZR - monolithic zirconia. These w
