TMJ Skull Anatomy Model with Mastication Muscles

For an in-depth understanding of jaw movements, the TMJ Skull Anatomy Model with Mastication Muscles is a great choice. With the masseter, temporal, medial, and pterygoid muscles represented by elastic bands, this skull can be used for training or studying how the opening of the jaw affects the functioning of the relevant muscles. For more elaborate study, you can remove the skull cap and place an anatomical brain model inside.

What's Included?

• 1x Human Skull Model

Please note: The brain model that fits into this skull model is not included, and must be purchased separately.

How Can This Skull Model Enhance My Anatomical Knowledge?

The Skull Anatomy Model is a high-quality teaching tool that highlights the placement and functioning of masticatory muscles. The muscles are represented by elastic bands, enabling a recreation of the initial stage of jaw opening, and a mimicking of the movement of the jaw to the side and front. The labelled mastication muscles that you will find on this model include:

• Masseter muscles
• Temporal muscles
• Medial muscles
• Pterygoid muscles

The skull cap of this manikin is removable, allowing insertion of a brain model for further anatomical study.

Which Brain Model Can I Use With This Skull?

This human skull model has a removable skullcap, which allows a brain manikin to be placed inside. The 5-Part 3D Human Brain Model is the perfect size to fit into the skull. Using this brain model, it is possible to get a more detailed understanding of the anatomy of the human head.
