Maarc Dental Mixing Pads are essential for dental professionals, providing a reliable surface for mixing dental materials. These large pads are designed for optimal performance in various dental procedures, ensuring accurate mixing of cements, composites, and other materials. Made from high-quality, non-absorbent materials, they prevent contamination and ensure a clean working area. Ideal for use in dental clinics and laboratories, these pads are a must-have for efficient workflow.

Maarc Dental Mixing Pads (Big) are professional-grade, disposable, coated-paper sheets used by dental practitioners to clean, knead, and spatulate chair-side materials. Manufactured by Maarc Dental (Shiv Shakti Enterprises), these pads serve as a hygienic, fluid-impermeable alternative to traditional glass slabs. They allow clinicians to rapidly prep multi-component materials and instantly discard the single-use sheet, eliminating tedious clean-up and risk of cross-contamination

📏 Technical Specifications & Sizing

Maarc splits its mixing sheets into two highly distinct sizes depending on how much material needs to be spatulated at once:

• Dimensions (Big/Large): 75 mm × 146 mm (providing an elongated workspace ideal for longer spatula strokes).
• Dimensions (Small): 60 mm × 60 mm (designed strictly for micro-doses of cavity liners or resins).
• Quantity: Each pad is packaged as a bound booklet containing 50 single-use tear-off sheets.
• Structure: Features a non-slip, peelable top margin that securely anchors the sheets together while you work.

🔬 Core Features & Engineering Benefits

• Double-Sided Waterproof Coating: The sheets are chemically treated with a specialized polyethylene or poly-coated barrier. This completely stops liquid monomers and chemical acids from seeping through to the sheets underneath, preserving the full batch.
• Non-Stick Smooth Surface: Highly resistant to scraping, allowing broad dental spatulas to slide smoothly. This guarantees that you can reclaim almost 100% of the material you mix without it adhering permanently to the surface.
• Zero Moisture Absorption: Unlike standard paper, it does not draw water or essential oils out of your chemical mixtures. This keeps the liquid-to-powder ratio completely balanced, ensuring the material cures with its intended physical strength.
• Chair-Side Workflow Optimization: Rather than taking a glass slab away to scrape it clean with alcohol or run it through an autoclave, assistants simply tear off the top soiled sheet and throw it away. A fresh, uncontaminated surface is ready instantly.

Specification

Each mixing pad measures 10 x 12 inches, providing ample space for mixing. Constructed from durable, non-porous plastic, they are easy to clean and dispose of. These pads comply with relevant safety and quality standards, ensuring reliable performance in clinical settings. Available in packs of 50 for convenient procurement.

Usage

Dental Mixing Pads are used during the preparation of dental materials, allowing for precise mixing and application. It is recommended to handle the pads with clean hands and store them in a dry environment to maintain their integrity. Dispose of used pads according to local regulations to ensure safety and hygiene.

🩺 Compatible Dental Materials

The large surface area of the Big Pad provides ample space to mix larger structural volumes of viscous cements and pastes, including:

• Glass Ionomer Cements (GIC): Perfect for hand-mixing luting cements (like Type I) or restorative bases (like Type II).
• Zinc Oxide Eugenol (ZOE): Provides enough length for the long, flat wiping strokes needed to blend base and catalyst pastes uniformly.
• Polycarboxylate & Zinc Phosphate Cements: Safely handles the acidic liquids of these structural crown-bonding agents without eroding.
• Temporary Restorative Resins: Ideal for spatulating temporary filling putties or crown-and-bridge resins before loading them into the mouth
