  • Special exhibition in the Study Room

  • Winter break: Dental school for kids and adults 🦷

    Molars, incisors, and canines will be put in order and repaired during the winter break, when Medical Museion invites the whole family to dental school. Here you can take a closer look at a tooth under a microscope and pull teeth out. You’ll get over your fear of the dentist, as there will be both drilling and fillings to be done (in a plaster tooth).
