These educational models were originally used in medical and dental universities for teaching tooth anatomy and internal structures. Each molar tooth is split vertically into two half-sections (4 pieces in total), revealing a detailed, hand-painted cross-section showing enamel, dentin, root canals, and pulp chamber with blood vessels and nerves.
Quantity: Set of 2 complete teeth (dissectible into 4 individual pieces)
Type: Human molar anatomical teaching models
Period: Mid-20th Century (c. 1950s–1970s)
Material: Composite material, hand-painted
Markings: Numbered markings on inner edge for educational alignment
Condition:
Good vintage condition with an authentic patina. Shows minor surface wear, small paint chips, and age-related signs consistent with school/university use, which adds to its historical character. No major structural cracks.
An excellent addition for collectors of medical oddities, cabinet of curiosities (Wunderkammer), or as unique decorative pieces for a dental clinic/office.
Shipping: Carefully packed and shipped with tracking and insurance.
