Temple University Dental Museum

Prominent in the Museum is a Victorian dental office, complete with life-sized figures in a recreated workroom, office and operatory from the pre-electrical years. An audio presentation brings this area to life with conversation and period sound effects. Other interactive exhibits engage the dental community and the general public alike. For example, in a progress of mechanics interactive, visitors are asked to match dental procedures with the appropriate tool. In an oral microbiology interactive, microbes are connected to their effect on the patient. Throughout the Museum, the visitor is entertained, informed and enlightened.
