Model of carnivore dentition for educational purposes

Abstract

A model of carnivore dentition for educational purposes is disclosed, comprising a rigid body panel representing the mouth of a carnivorous animal. The model includes a plurality of magnets embedded at predetermined positions corresponding to specific tooth types, namely incisors, canines, carnassial teeth, premolars, and molars. A set of metallized name tags is provided for magnetic attachment to the panel at the corresponding tooth positions. The utility model serves as an interactive pedagogical tool to demonstrate the spatial arrangement and functional adaptations of teeth specialized for cutting and tearing meat, providing a durable and reusable means for anatomical identification and study.
