About mixing tips
A mixing tip attaches to the cartridge, and an intraoral tip can be added to its end to place material in the mouth. Makers colour-code their tips: one set of instructions pairs a white-base tip with heavy body material and a red-base tip with light body.
Two-part materials in automix cartridges are pressed out with a dispensing gun through a mixing tip, a static mixer fixed to the end of the cartridge. The gun is matched to the cartridge by size and mixing ratio, which makers mark on the gun, for example DS-50 with 1:1 and 2:1.
How dispensing guns and mixing tips differ
- Dispensing guns and delivery systems — The reusable part, chosen by cartridge size and mixing ratio.
- Mixing tips and applicators — The disposable part: used mixers are discarded and the cartridge is resealed with its original cap.
- Restorative Accessories — Splinting material, tubes and plugs, cavity varnish and a syringe stand.
What to look at when choosing
Fit: makers' instructions name the tip for each cartridge by colour and size, such as a yellow tip for a 50 ml cartridge and a brown tip for a 10 ml one. Material should come out easily through a mixer of the right size; one maker warns that excessive force can rupture the cartridge or break the gun.
Needle tips: some static mixers carry a built-in metal needle tip of a stated gauge, such as 17 or 19 gauge, for more precise placement.
First material out: makers instruct users to express a small amount onto a pad first, to ensure an even mix of base and catalyst.
