Patent ID: 7341452

Claim:
A disposable dental capsule for dispensing and applying low viscosity dental materials comprising: a body portion adapted to receive and dispense a predetermined measured amount of a low viscosity dental material; said body portion having an enlarged opening at one end, a radially outwardly extending flange formed on said body portion about said enlarged opening adaptable for forming an attachment to a syringe; and said body portion including an elongated discharge nozzle formed on the other end of said body portion terminating in a discharge orifice formed at the discharge end of said discharge nozzle; and a porous flow through cover attached to said discharge end of said discharge nozzle, said porous flow through cover completely covering said discharge orifice whereby the dental material in said body portion is unidirectionally dispensed from said discharge orifice and through said porous flow through cover, said porous flow through cover sized relative to the viscosity of the low viscosity dental material to be dispensed therethrough to provide a controlled and consistent uniform rate of flow at which the low viscosity dental material is unidirectionally dispensed through said porous if low through cover so that the dental material may be spread, painted or brushed directly onto a dental surface as the dental material is being dispensed.
