Erler-Zimmer Skull Model with Masticatory Muscles (3-Part)

The Erler-Zimmer Skull Model with Masticatory Muscles (3-Part) displays chewing muscles of the skull and makes an excellent tool for learning anatomy alongside text-book study. With the ability to move the mandible, this model is able to effectively demonstrate chewing motions.

What's Included?

• 1 x Skull Model with Matiscatory Muscles (3-Part)

Features of the Erler-Zimmer Skull Model with Masticatory Muscles

• Life-size reproduction of human skull supports anatomy study of the skull
• Displays masticatory muscles and demonstrates function of each muscle
• Moveable mandible displays chewing motions whilst assembled
• Dismantlable into three parts for students to view the internal structures of the skull
• Anatomically accurate teeth positioning
• Pin and magnet system prevents damage to the model during dismantling and re-mantling
• Life-like texture adds realism to the model

What Masticatory Muscles Does this Human Skull Model Display?

The Erler-Zimmer Skull Model with Masticatory Muscles displays masseter muscle, temporal muscle, pterygoideus medialis and lateralis muscles, each represented in the form of elastic bands. In using this model, it is possible to demonstrate the function of the masticatory muscles with closure of the mandible, induction of opening of the mandible and lateral and forward displacement of the mandible.

Who Can Use the Erler-Zimmer Skull Model with Masticatory Muscles?

This Erler-Zimmer Skull Model is the perfect tool for teaching students of all levels about human anatomy. Able to dissect into 3 parts, this model allows for analysis of individual sections of the skull as well as its masticatory muscles for the educational benefit of patients and students alike. The main applications for this model include:

• Biology classes
• General education
• Personal studies
• Medical training
• Hospitals
• Patient education/demonstration

Moveable Jaw

The masticatory muscles of the skull are represented in the form of flexible elastic structures. These allow the mandible to be open and closed in order to demonstrate the movements of the muscles and jaws during chewing.

Anatomically Accurate

All anatomical features and details are accurate in the Erler-Zimmer Skull Model with Masticatory Muscles, making it life-like for use in medical and anatomy studies. Users can have total confidence in using this model as a visual aid to support textbook study of the anatomy of the skull.
