Summary:A dental mixing pad whose mixing surface side is constituted by a color having a low reflectance of a light having a wavelength of 470 nm±80 nm, is disclosed. It is preferred that the color having a low reflectance of a light having a wavelength of 470 nm±80 nm, which constitutes the mixing surface side of the dental mixing pad, is satisfied with at least one of the following requirements: that is, in a standard illuminant D65, L* is 80 or less, and C* is less than 20; L* is 80 or less, and h is 50°±80°; and L* is 30 or less, when expressed by an L*C*h color space. The dental mixing pad of the present invention to be used as a substrate in mixing and kneading a dental material such as a dental cement or a resin-based material, using for dental adhesives or dental filling materials, on its mixing surface in the dental remedy, can readily suppress an unnecessary polymerization reaction with a illumination of circumferential lights without applying excessive operations or using a special device.
