About mixing tips
A mixing tip screws onto the cartridge and mixes the base and the catalyst as they are pressed through it. Makers colour-code them: one set of instructions pairs a white-base tip with heavy body material and a red-base tip with light body. To keep voids out of the impression, a review describes holding the tip fully immersed in the material being syringed, with a steady flow rate.
Two-part impression and restorative materials are mixed one of three ways: by hand, through a static mixer, or by a machine that mixes them dynamically. A review calls auto-mixed, cartridge-based materials a notable development, and gives two reasons: it removes the spatulation step and the operator errors that go with it, and it cuts the number of voids in the impression by a factor of four to five against mixing by hand. A cartridge is pressed out with a dispensing gun through a mixing tip, a static mixer fixed to the end of the cartridge.
How mixing tips, intraoral tips, guns and bowls differ
- Mixing Tips — The disposable part: used mixers are discarded and the cartridge is resealed with its original cap.
- Intraoral Tips — Added after the mixer, to reach into the mouth.
- Dispensing Guns & Syringes — The reusable part, chosen by cartridge size and mixing ratio. Material comes out easily through a mixer of the right size; one maker warns that excessive force can rupture the cartridge or break the gun.
- Mixing Bowls & Dishes — For material mixed by hand, where a cartridge and tip are not involved.
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. 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.
Gloves: sulfur from natural latex gloves can contaminate the platinum catalyst of a vinyl polysiloxane and hold up its set, and the end of a mixing tip is one of the things a review names as not to be touched with latex gloves on.
Where the voids come from: a review lists mixing of base and catalyst, loading of the tray or syringe, the syringing itself, and working past the working time.
