Function and Applications

The human skull consists of many individual bones that gradually grow together as the development proceeds. The best selling 3B Scientific® Beauchene Adult Human Skull is a natural cast and makes the complex anatomical structure of the human skull easy to understand.   The Beauchene Skull can be disassembled into its 22 individual bones. The individual bones can be reassembled by means of inconspicuous, stable connectors attached at the slightly simplified skull sutures. All 22 bones are depicted in their natural bone color in this "Exploded Human Skull". The skull consists of the following individual bones:

• Parietal bone (left and right)
