To evaluate of shear bond value of conventional glass ionomer cement and new ceramic reinforced glass ionomer cement. Material and Method: In present in-vitro study total 30 deciduous molars with intact buccal or lingual surfaces were included. Samples were randomly divided into two groups, i.e., groups A, B and were restored with conventional type II GIC, new ceramic reinforced glass ionomer cement (Amalgomer CR), respectively. Thermocycling was done to simulate oral conditions. Using a universal testing machine with a crosshead speed of 0.5 mm per minute, shear bond strength was assessed after 24 hours until breakage. The outcomes were tallied and statistically evaluated. Result: It was observed from the result that the SBS value of amalgomer CR was 7.49 ± 0.74 MPa which was significantly higher than conventional GIC 4.02 ± 0.49 MPa. Conclusion: It was found that Amalgomer CR had a better shear bond value to primary teeth than traditional type II GIC within the confines of the current in vitro study.
