To provide a malaxation apparatus for dental restoration, which moves a capsule housing body for housing and retaining a capsule for dental restoration in a circular pattern with the longitudinal direction of the capsule housing body kept in one direction in order to mix a powdered component and a fluid component of a dental restoration material in a mixing compartment of the capsule for dental restoration for malaxation.
The malaxation apparatus for dental restoration is constituted of a rotating plate 3 rotated around a driving shaft 2a by a driving means 2, a bearing 4 for the capsule housing body, which pivots a capsule housing body supporting shaft 5a attached to the vicinity of the peripheral part of the rotary plate 3 and fixed to the capsule housing body 5 to freely rotate only in a direction opposite to the rotational direction of the rotary plate 3, a balance weight 6 fixed on the rotary plate 3, and a mechanism which moves a direction retaining shaft 5b of the capsule housing body, substantially coupled to the capsule housing body 5 in a circular pattern with a center different from and a diameter same as the circular movement of the supporting shaft 5a in the direction same as the rotational direction of the rotary plate 3.
