Abstract: A device for storing and dispensing a flowable dental composition, comprising: a first layer and a second layer, wherein the first layer and second layer form a first chamber for containing a flowable dental composition, a transition zone, and a second chamber; an applicator retained within the second chamber; wherein the first chamber has a first concave surface formed in the first layer and a second concave surface formed in the second layer; wherein the device includes an inactive state and an active state.

Abstract: A capsule for mixing and dispensing a dental material which has a capsule body and a cavity extending into the capsule body. The cavity is closed by a liquid container. The liquid container has a cartridge forming a channel that extends between a front opening and a rear opening of the cartridge. Further the cartridge has a front foil closing the front opening and a rear foil closing the rear opening. The front foil is attached at the cartridge along a closed path circumferentially around the front opening. The front foil and the cartridge in at least a partial area of the circumferential path are separably sealed with each other, thus defining an openable valve through that path. The capsule has further a piston received in the channel of the cartridge and arranged such that the liquid is enclosed in the cartridge between the front foil and the piston. The capsule facilitates the preparation of a two-component dental material.

Abstract: A device for dispensing a dental material comprises first compartment and the second compartment formed between interconnected sheet-like layers. The compartments encapsulate a first flowable component and a second flowable component of the dental material. The device has a first seal and a second seal for sealing the first compartment and the second compartment in the device. Each seal is adapted to automatically open in consequence of forcing a component of the dental material toward the seal. The capacity of the first compartment and the second compartment relative to each other is dimensioned such that squeezing out the first component from the first compartment by compressing the first compartment causes the first seal and the second seal to open. The device preferably allows easy and quick activation for use of the stored components.

Abstract: A package for a dental material comprises a compartment for holding a first substance of the dental material and an open reservoir at least partially formed by a wall of the package. The package is adapted such that the compartment and the reservoir are connectable for fluid communication. The reservoir accommodates a second substance of the dental material retained at a surface of the reservoir wall. The package preferably enables easy mixing of the dental material from the first and second substance, thus preferably facilitate a preparation and use of the dental material.

Abstract: The present invention is related to a device for providing a dental material. The device has first and second compartments formed between sheet-like layers, and first and second dispensing outlets for the first and second compartments, respectively. For use, the device can be positioned with the compartments overlapping each other and with the dispensing outlets located side by side. The invention may provide a rather inexpensive device which may help a user in a convenient preparation of a dental material.

Abstract: A device for providing a dental material, which comprises a compartment formed by first and second interconnected layers, and a well adjacent the compartment in the first layer. The second layer partially overlaps the well. The device helps the dental material to be used in a convenient manner, and may be relatively inexpensive to manufacture.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for storing and dispensing a flowable substance. The device comprises a container comprising a base member and a cover member being sealingly connected with each other along the circumference of the container, a compartment for receiving the substance, and an open ended pocket area into which the substance is transferable from the compartment, and a cannula having an internal passageway being in fluid communication with the pocket for dispensing the substance.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for batch-dispensing a material from a container, such as pulverulent or granular material, for example dental powder such as glass ionomer, the device comprising at least one displaceable member being displaceable between a first position and a second position, and having at least one cavity being alternately emptied and filled from the container upon displacement of the displaceable member.

Abstract: A device for storing and dispensing substances, preferably small quantities of liquids, including a container formed by two sheets, interconnected by hot sealing and cooperating to form a compartment for receiving the liquid and a pocket for receiving a brush. In the area between the compartment and the pocket, the connection between the sheets includes a pre-defined break zone which can be released by pressure exerted on the compartment, to force the liquid from the compartment into the pocket and wet the tip of the brush disposed therein.
