Learners will also be able to carve and make wax teeth mold after learning the basic skills of tooth carving and waxing-up.2. Skill objectives: With the theoretical knowledge of tooth morphology, learners can draw the 2D images of all the 5 surfaces of every tooth, and can carve and pile up the 3D teeth based on the morphological features of the 2D image; using the anatomical and morphological knowledge in dentition, occlusion, jaw, masticatory muscles and temporomandibular joint as well as the physiological knowledge of stomatognathic system, learners are able to analyze the dentition and occlusal characteristics of different individuals (start from analyzing their own), and understand the role of various oral components and maxillofacial system.3. Psychological objectives: Prepare learners to face the fact that the training of "basic skills" is boring, and to accept the imperfections of their own work in carving and shaping teeth at the beginning; cultivate learners’ attitude towards striving for perfection, pursuing excellence and continuous learning of carving and shaping teeth; help learners appreciate the beauty of tooth shape, discover the artistic beauty of stomatology and develop a passion for stomatology.
