Articulation and Resonance Lab 1
Bones of the Skull and Face (Cadaver or Noncadaver Lab)
To the Instructor: This can be either a cadaver or noncadaver lab. Many very realistic synthetic
skulls are available, and such a purchase is well worth the money if possible. You can also
perform this lab with figures. You may wish to add some of the following images from the
Image Library to the lab guide so that students will have them at hand as a reference in the lab.
