PURPOSE: A method for modeling a mandible is provided to revive a mandible model most suitable for the condition of a human body using the mandible of a corpse and manufacture a stress analysis model of the mandible close to an oral state using the model. CONSTITUTION: Slices of a mandible of a corpse are manufactured in a first step. The slices manufactured in the first step are traced in a second step. All the data traced in the second step are converted into image files in a third step. A wire model is made using such image files in a fourth step. A surface model is made based on the wire model in a fifth step. A solid model is made using the surface model in a sixth step.
