Description:

The 1994P Mixing Pad Small (1½″ × 2″) is a carefully designed disposable mixing pad specifically tailored for dental and laboratory settings where precision, cleanliness, and efficiency in workflow are essential. Available in convenient 10-pack sets, these compact pads are perfect for accurately mixing materials like dental cements, impression pastes, composites, etchants, and bonding agents. Optimized Size for Clinical Use Each pad is 1.5 inches by 2 inches in size, presenting a surface area ideal for small to moderate mixing requirements. Whether preparing a quick batch of luting cement for a single crown or mixing adhesives for bonding applications, the pad’s dimensions ensure that materials are contained, visible, and manageable, minimizing spillage and excess. High-Quality Non-Absorbent Paper Constructed from a chemically resistant paper composition with low absorbency, the 1994P pad facilitates maximum use of dental materials. Its non-porous surface prevents liquid absorption, maintaining the consistency of material properties and avoiding dilution—vital when working with precise ratios of resin or additional liquids. Single-Use Convenience & Infection Control These mixing pads are designed for one-time use and are individually wrapped for easy accessibility. This guarantees optimal hygiene and effectively reduces the risk of cross-contamination between patients and materials. After use, the pads can be swiftly removed and disposed of, enhancing procedural efficiency and simplifying cleanup in the operatory. Chemical Compatibility The pad's surface is resistant to common dental chemicals including acids, etchants, resin components, and alcohol-based disinfectants. This compatibility ensures the integrity of the surface during mixing, preventing tearing or degradation. Streamlined Workflow Integration Engineered for placement directly on operatory trays or countertops, the 1994P pad promotes efficient workflow by offering a stable, dedicated space for handling materials. Clinicians can position multiple pads side by side for consecutive tasks—such as mixing etchant on one pad and resin on another—without needing separate trays or barriers. Applicability Across Procedures Luting cements (e.g., resin-modified glass ionomer, zinc phosphate) Bonding agents and adhesives Composite or glass ionomer bases Impression materials (bite registration pastes, putty components) Temporary restorative compounds Practical Bulk Packaging Each pack containing 10 pads ensures a dependable quantity for multiple visits or busy dental sessions. The slim packaging allows for easy storage in supply drawers, operatory trays, or procedural kits. Once opened, the pads remain organized and free from contamination. Enhanced Efficiency & Cost Effectiveness The ease of use and disposability of these pads boost clinical efficiency by minimizing setup and cleanup times. Simple dispensing and prompt disposal help maintain fluid workflows while reducing interruptions. Compared to reusable glass or metal mixing slabs, these single-use pads eliminate the requirement for disinfection, resulting in time savings and reduced processing costs.
