In the present study, we demonstrated the effects of carbon dioxide (CO<SUB>2</SUB>) laser irradiation on the physical process of repairing the enamel surface structure after power bleaching. Under a scanning electron microscope, the structure of the enamel surface was subjected to bleaching treatment using CO<SUB>2</SUB> laser in combination with 30% H202 and showed preferen tial removal of rods. Fluoridation using CO<SUB>2</SUB> laser irradiation (24.9 J/cm<SUP>2</SUP>) changed the damaged enamel surface to an even flat structure. Furthermore, the adhesion of hydroxyapatite (HA) particles could be seen on the enamel surface after application of HA and CO<SUB>2</SUB> irradiation (218.4 J/cm<SUP>2</SUP>); the HA particles had remained on the enamel surface despite ultrasound washing. These findings indicate that HA particle coating on the enamel surface can be achieved by CO<SUB>2</SUB> laser irradiation, suggesting that this method way be used for repairing the damaged enamel surface after power bleaching.
