Abstract: ABSTRACT The present invention discloses a dual-ended dental instrument tenned 'Twin Spatula," designed to incorporate two distinct spatula types within a single unit. One end of the instrument comprises a plastic spatula suitable for mixing alginate impression materials, while the opposite end consists of a stainless steel spatula designed for mixing dental stone and gypsum-based materials. Both ends are securely integrated into a single ergonomic handle, forming a unified instrument that allows users to switch between functionalities by simply flipping the device. The invention eliminates the need for separate instruments, thereby reducing procedural time, improving efficiency, and minimizing workspace clutter. The ergonomic handle ensures comfortable grip and optimal control during mixing procedures. Additionally, the integrated design reduces the likelihood of instrument misplacement and enhances workflow continuity in both clinical and laboratory settings. The Twin Spatula represents a practical advancement in dental instrumentation by combining material-specific mixing tools into a compact, durable, and user-friendly design
