Description from the seller
Major – Vintage dental technician display case with 10 drawers containing 1,062 artificial teeth in resin – Turin, Italy
Fascinating professional display case branded Major – Turin, Italy, complete with 10 removable drawers and 1,062 artificial teeth in resin, a collectible of particular interest for dental collecting and enthusiasts of scientific objects and vintage curiosities.
The structure stands out for its vivid orange color, paired with ivory-colored drawers with molded handles and the MAJOR brand embossed. The front panel bears the company logo, while the labels applied to the drawers preserve the indications used to organize the different types of teeth.
Inside, the teeth are arranged on numerous sample holder bars, mostly with red backgrounds, accompanied by acronyms and references relating to shapes and shades. The assortment includes incisors, canines, premolars and molars, with different sizes and anatomical characteristics: a concrete testament to the work of selecting and assembling dental prostheses in dental laboratories.
Next to the Major series there are supports with other names, including Italdent, Kenson Cambridge and Acry-Rock, as documented in the photographs. The contents therefore constitute a mixed assortment stored in the Major display case.
Historical notes
Founded in Turin in 1960, Major Prodotti Dentari specialized in the production of materials for dentistry and prosthetic technology, developing a range including artificial teeth and materials for prostheses. This display case recalls the Turin industrial tradition applied to the dental sector and the role of classification tools in the daily laboratory practice.
Conditions
The display case shows few signs of use and aging: some series are incomplete and several compartments are empty. The lot includes a total of 1,062 artificial teeth, including those on the bars that are partially filled.
Measurements:
31.5 x 24 x 29 cm.
The photographs are an integral part of the description and allow appreciation of the composition and the condition of the piece.
A visually striking item, suitable for a collection on the history of dentistry, a themed display, or an original cabinet of curiosities. Offered as a collectible and display item, with no certificate of clinical suitability.
Tracked and insured shipping, appropriate packaging.
