You can also use the old pad itself as a pry by using it on end. The piston you push on will stay retracted until you push on the piston next to it in which case it may pop out a little again (fluid following the path of least resistance). Just go back and forth on the 2 pistons a couple of times and it should be fine. If you are increasing thickness significantly it will be a good idea to suck out some brake fluid first.
