Support for amalgam mixing bowl
A trainee dental nurse with a disabled arm was having trouble holding a rubber mixing bowl to mix amalgam as she only had 60 seconds to prepare the mixture before it set.
A wooden support was made that holds the bowl steady for mixing. A sticky mat also holds the bowl secure.
She can now mix the amalgam quickly before it sets.
