Resumen

Education and knowledge adapted to the new educative systems, as it is the Bologna plan, require more and more of the new technologies for the educational support. Informatics applied to biomedical teaching contributes great advantages, mainly facing the students. In dentistry in particular, the creation of virtual simulators brings a great advance in areas like Anatomy. For this reason, we created a three-dimensional virtual model of the maxilo-mandibular system based on a real infantile specimen that serves as a support in the education of the paediatric anatomy of the maxilomandibular system.
