These specimens are provided to us by retired physicians, medical researchers, dental professionals, and former university medical programs. We also work with accredited donor programs. A small sample – often antiques that simply do not qualify for medical/research grade usage – are made available to osteology enthusiasts worldwide so that they may continue to educate and inform.nnThis product requires additional insurance to ensure your package arrives safely.
