Title: Pellet dispenser for dental purpose

Abstract: In this pellet dispenser, foam pellets or the like are made available individually for pickup by the dentist. The dispenser housing includes a cylindrical body with a conical top covered by a cylindrical hood having a conical upper end. The hood has at least one dispensing aperture through which an individual pellet is pressed by the weight of the hood. Advantageously, the conical top includes one or more flat sections so that upon rotation of the hood, the volume available to the pellets will vary as the hood is rotated. This aids in urging pellets into the dispensing apertures.
