Dental Morphology Series, 7 part, 10 times life size - English
Ten times life-size, six teeth representative of every human tooth type are included in this series:
- Lateral Incisor Canine (cuspid)
- First Premolar (bicuspid) with advanced caries
- Second Premolar
- Detachable bridge, consisting of first Molar with gold crown
- Second Molar
Since it is nearly identical morphologically to the lateral incisor, the central incisor is not included, nor is the third molar, which is so similar to the second. Each tooth has its name hand lettered on its surface, and is removable from the transparent base.
22 hand-coded features are identified in the accompanying key.
- Lateral Incisor
- Crown
- Neck
- Root
- Enamel
- Dentin
- Pulp
- Cementum
- Nerve and Blood Supply Cuspid
- Amalgam Filling
- First Bicuspid

- First Molar (Replacement Tooth)
- Gold Crown on Replacement Tooth
- Second Molar
- Tooth Preparation to Receive Inlay

In life, the
periodontal membrane lies between the tooth and the gum line. The gum line is represented by the stand on this model. The
mandible (jawbone) lies under the gum line.
