Recently, plasma arc curing system for curing resin composites has been introduced. This is characterized by a high output of light energy, which has the advantage of reducing the chair time and thereby making the treatment more comportable for the patients as well as for the dentist. The purpose of this study was to compare the shear bond strengths of light-cured orthodontic adhesive polymerized with conventional halogen light and plasma arc light. The 2 curing devices used were the XL3000 (3M, USA) conventional curing light and the Flipo (LOKKI, France) plasma arc light. The results from the present study can be summarized as fellows; 1. The mean shear bond strength for three groups were quite similar for 50 second conventional light group, 2 second plasma arc curing light group, 5 second plasma arc curing light group. 2. There was no statistically significant difference for three groups(p>0.05).
