HOW IT WORKS
Unique Chemistry to Eliminate Acid Etching
Instead of the typical acid etching that roughens the enamel to create a mechanical bond with resin tags, Ormco Etch Free Bonding creates a chemical bond with the calcium in the enamel itself*.
This technology allows EtchFree Bonding to help maintain the enamel health and completely withstand moisture contamination, reducing debonds compared to other adhesive products†.
Save Time with Reduced Bonding Steps
Ormco EtchFree Bonding removes the etching, rinsing, and drying steps from the typical bonding protocol. The Ormco EtchFree Primer can be applied without any agitation, waiting or other steps, resulting in reduced technique sensitivity and significant time savings.

Exceptional Enamel Protection
Traditional acid etching is designed to expose the enamel rods that support a mechanical bond with the resin adhesive. EtchFree Primer minimizes surface roughening damage to the enamel compared to traditional etchant or self-etch products, while promoting reliable bond strength.

Consistent Bond Strength. Wet or Dry.
Unlike leading bonding products, Ormco EtchFree Bonding maintains high bond strength even in a completely wet environment.
