Model Skull with Masticatory Muscles

Features of the Model Skull with Masticatory Muscles

The Model Skull with Masticatory Muscles is an incredibly realistic, digitalised casting of a lifesize human skull for use in medical training institutions. The skull of the Model Skull with Masticatory Muscles can be dismantled to its two constituent parts: a base and a skullcap which fit together using a unique pin and magnet system which eliminates the need for hooks as used in other model skeletons which are easily damaged. The skullcap and base fit together in such a way that there are no gaps between the two pieces which increase the realism of the model.

The detail of the Model Skull with Masticatory Muscles is such that the foramina, fissures, and processes are included on the skull for extra realism. All anatomical features and details are included with the Model Skull with Masticatory Muscles making it lifelike for use in medical training scenarios. The masticatory muscles of the skull are represented in the form of flexible elastic structures that allow the mandible to be open and closed in order to demonstrate the movements of the muscles and jaws during chewing. The Muscles included in the Model Skull with Masticatory Muscles are listed below:

• Masseter muscle
• Temporal Muscle
• Pterygoideus medialis and lateralis muscles

The teeth of the Model Skull with Masticatory Muscles correspond perfectly to the position and embrasure found in real teeth for further realism.
