Introduction: Light cured composite resins have become the method of choice in orthodontic bonding procedures worldwide. In recent years, a new primerless orthodontic bonding composite, Heloisit® with good bond strength, fluoride release and an advantage of not requiring use of a primer has been introduced. Aims of the study: To compare the bonding characteristics of commonly available self and light cured adhesives with the Heliosit ®primerless bonding system. Materials and Methods: One hundred twenty extracted human premolar teeth were mounted on similar sized aluminium blocks filled with acrylic resin and were divided into four groups of thirty teeth each. All teeth were bonded with four different bonding systems Group i) Light Cured Primerless orthodontic Composite (Heliosit®, Ivoclar Vivadent, Schaan, Liechtenstein), Group ii) Light Cured Composite Resin (Transbond XT®, 3MUnitek), Group iii) Light Cured GIC (GC Fuji Ortho LC®, GC Corp.), Group iv) Self Cured Composite Resin (Rely-A-Bond®, Reliance, Inc., Illinois, USA) using metallic premolar first premolar brackets (0.022" Ortho Organizers). These were evaluated for shear bond strength using an Instron testing machine. Surface characteristics after debonding were studied under scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and evaluated using the adhesive remnant index (AR Index). Results: Shear bond strength (SBS) of primerless orthodontic light cured Heliosit® composite was clinically significant and adequate for clinical use. It lies intermediate to Transbond XT light-cured composite and Light Cured GIC. The least bond strength was shown by Rely-a-Bond® self-cured composite resin. Conclusions: Heliosit® light cured primerless orthodontic composite can be used for everyday clinical use due to its ideal characteristics of sufficient bond strength and reduced chances of enamel damage at debonding.Additionally, it is primerless and saves valuable clinical time.
