Dentsply Sirona has released a newly optimized mixing tip and cartridge system that the company says results in improved mix quality of the material.

Using mixing cube technology, the new system optimizes the application of conventional impression materials, allowing a single cartridge to be used for more applications. The company says the new application system will gradually replace the existing one.

The new cartridge and mixing tip system aims to improve the application features for brands like Aquasil Ultra+. One of the biggest changes – apparently, a decisive one – lies in the redesign of the mixing tip.

Introducing a turning wing and small alignment pin, the newly designed tip can be easily fixed to the cartridge. The corresponding connection mechanism further lessens the risk of cross-contamination between the base and catalyst components. The newly developed 50mL cartridge and mixing tip system now only require a one-time bleed before first use.

The optimized design, inn conjunction with reduced-volume cannula, can purportedly reduce material waste by up to 64 percent as well as increase the number of uses per cartridge by 10 additional applications. This allows for more consistent homogeneous mixing and efficient use of the impression material.

Thanks to colour-coded cartridges and mixing tips, it’s also easier to to connect the cartridges with the appropriate tip. Compatible with the standard hand dispensers and mechanical mixers on the market, the new system promises benefits of easier handling and greater efficiency.
