A capsule-like cartridge comprising a cylindrical body of uniform diameter open at one end and provided with an annular flange surrounding the open end, the other end being closed by an integral hemi-spherical end of the same radius as said body and provided with an angularly extending discharge nipple communicating with the interior of the hemi-spherical end and body. After the body is loaded with a precisely measured quantity of material, the open end is closed by a plug slidably movable along said body when one end is engaged by a plunger of no greater diameter than said plug and the opposite end being complementary in shape to the hemi-spherical end of the body, whereby the plunger is capable of discharging the entire measured amount of material in the body except the scintilla thereof lodged in the nipple. The body and plug are molded from opaque material impervious to the passage of light and the tip of the nipple is closed by a cap which may be color-coded to indicate various facts as kind of material, weight or quantity, or otherwise.

A miniature capsule-like cartridge adapted to be operated solely by being mounted upon an ejector-type holder and comprising in combination, a hollow elongated uniformly cylindrical body of predetermined length and uniform diameter interiorly and exteriorly and molded from rigid plastic material, one end of said body being open and formed at the extremity thereof with an annular relatively short circular exterior flange of limited width and adapted to be detachably mounted within a complementary seat in an ejector type holder, the opposite end of said body being closed by a hemispherical wall of substantially the same uniform thickness as said body, a discharge nipple of the same material as the body and molded integrally therewith and extending from said closed end of said body at an angle to the axis of said body to facilitate directing discharge from the cartridge to the interior of an oral cavity, a piston having sidewalls closely complementary to the inner walls of said body and inserted into the open end thereof to form a combination closure and ejecting means for material when contained in said cartridge, the inner end of said piston being hemispherical and complementary in shape to the interior surface of the closed end of said body to effect ejection of substantially the entire contents of said cartridge when said piston is fully inserted into said body of the cartridge, sealing means comprising a cup-shaped cap removably connected to the outer end of the discharge nipple on said body to close said outer end of the nipple to seal the contents of the cartridge against ingress of ambient atmosphere and/or any surrounding contaminating matter, and said cap being color-coded to indicate desired properties of the contents of the cartridge.
