ABSTRACT:
A sample of artificial teeth and gums of a display unit for dental surgeons arranges plural artificial tooth samples forming the anterior teeth along the natural arch of the teeth. The artificial tooth samples are fixed and arranged on an artificial gum sample tinted with a determined color. The artificial gum sample has an inner face designed with a contact face curved to a form allowing it to be aligned close to the gum of the anterior teeth of the patient. A handle allowing the artificial gum samples to be aligned with the gum of the patient is fixed to the artificial tooth samples or to the artificial gum sample. With samples of the artificial tooth and gum, the artificial tooth samples and artificial gum samples are both aligned along the anterior teeth of the patient by holding the handles, allowing the patient to decide the color, shape and teeth arrangement of the artificial teeth and the artificial gum.
