Erler-ZimmerDidactic Skull3-piece

The didactic skull from Erler-Zimmer is a teaching-oriented skull model of an average European adult. It is based on a real skull that was digitised and then idealised for medical education, with anatomical details that match the textbook. The individual skull bones are set off in the teaching colours customary in anatomy, paired bones in the same colour, which clearly separates the bone boundaries and makes learning the nomenclature easier. The three-part model consists of the skull base, calvaria and a movable lower jaw.

This skull model is used in anatomy teaching, in medical and therapeutic training, and for patient education. It is aimed at students, lecturers and practices who want to clearly distinguish bone boundaries and cranial sutures.

• Didactic skull model at the size of a European adult
• Skull bones set off in anatomical teaching colours
• Three parts: skull base, calvaria and lower jaw
• Lower jaw movably mounted and removable
• Calvaria held by magnets, with no gap to the base
• Teeth with realistic position and spacing

The colour marking is the decisive difference from the natural-toned standard version: it especially helps in learning the skull bones and their boundaries. Anyone using the skull more as a true-to-life display object will choose an unmarked model; the didactic variant is intended for structured learning. The magnetic connection keeps the calvaria and base together permanently and without a gap.

The Erler-Zimmer didactic skull can be obtained from saneq for training and teaching in Switzerland.
