The body (12) has a removable end cap (16) and an axially rotatable member (20). The axially rotatable member (20) is attached to an externally threaded rod (34). The body (12) contains a non-rotatable piston (24) having a closed end (30) and an opposed open end (32). The piston (24) is inserted into the body (12) with the closed end (30) foremost. The piston (24) further comprises an axially extending recess (28) which is internally threaded. The threaded rod (34) is threadedly engaged with the recess (28). The axially rotatable member (20) may be rotated so as to cause the leading end (30) of the piston (24) to dispense dental material through the hollow body (12) after removal of the end cap (16).113 00 cl(N
