What Is the Gum of Scurvy Model Used For?
Scurvy develops when the diet has no fresh fruit and vegetables for a long time. The body needs vitamin C to build collagen, the protein that holds gums, skin and blood-vessel walls together, so the first signs are swollen, bleeding gums; bruising from bleeding under the skin and the reopening of wounds that had already healed can follow, and a prolonged deficiency can be fatal. The disease responds to vitamin C. A model of the gums gives students a clear picture of the early mouth signs without relying on clinical photographs, and it leads naturally into a discussion of good sources such as citrus fruits, amla, guava, tomatoes and green vegetables.
In school science it fits the class 6 lesson on components of food, where scurvy is the standard example of a vitamin C deficiency disease, and later health-education lessons. Nursing, dental and community-health courses use it when teaching nutrition and the oral signs of systemic disease. It is a teaching aid and does not replace medical advice.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the model show?
The mouth of a person with scurvy, with the swollen and inflamed gums typical of the disease. Ask JLab for a photograph of the current model if you need to see the detail before ordering.
Why do gums bleed in scurvy?
Without vitamin C the body cannot make strong collagen, so the gum tissue and its small blood vessels become fragile, swell and bleed easily.
Who manufactures it?
Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd (JLab) makes it at its works in Ambala, India, and quotes for it directly.
OEM Manufacturer
JLab is the trading name of Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd, a biology lab equipment and teaching-model manufacturer in India, incorporated in 2017 and based on Hargolal Road, Ambala, Haryana. The model is made in JLab’s own works rather than bought from a trader, so schools, colleges, dealers and importers buy from the maker itself, with a visual inspection of each unit before dispatch. JLab exports worldwide and ships to buyers in every region — for example Lesotho in Southern Africa, Sweden in Northern Europe, Poland in Eastern Europe, New Zealand in Oceania and Mali in West Africa.
