Maxilla - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia At the lower part of this surface is a rounded eminence, the maxillary tuberosity, especially prominent after the growth of the wisdom tooth; it is rough on its lateral side for articulation with the pyramidal process of the palatine bone and in some cases articulates with the lateral pterygoid plate of the sphenoid. Each bone consists of a body and four processes - zygomatic, frontal, alveolar, and palatine. The frontal process is well-marked and the body of the bone consists of little more than the alveolar process, the teeth sockets reaching almost to the floor of the orbit. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Maxilla   (2426 words)

Dept of Anth: Zygomatic Page The Frontal Process of the zygomatic forms the lateral margin and wall of the eye orbit and projects superiorly to articulate with the zygomatic process of the frontal bone. The Maxillary Process of the zygomatic articulates with the zygomatic portion of the maxilla by way of the Zygo-Maxillary Suture. Together these two processes assist in forming the zygomatic arch which serves as the attachment for the masseter muscle in life, one of the primary muscles used in mastication. www.csuchico.edu /anth/Module/zygomatic.html   (2494 words)

Waltham - OSU Symposium The rostral orbital rim is osseus for four-fifths of its circumference and is comprised by the maxilla, frontal, lacrimal, and zygomatic bones.  The rostrolateral orbital rim is completed by the orbital ligament which extends from the zygomatic process of the frontal bone to the frontal process of the zygomatic bone. The medial orbital wall is formed by the pars orbitalis of the frontal bone, a thin septa that separates the orbit from the nasal cavity.  The optic canal and orbital fissure of the sphenoid bones define the caudal orbital apex. Orbital disease is common in dogs and cats but is frequently misdiagnosed and subsequently may be treated inappropriately.  A general review of normal orbital anatomy is necessary to understand disease processes affecting the orbit.  www.vin.com /VINDBPub/SearchPB/Proceedings/PR05000/PR00521.htm   (424 words)

Wolf Anatomy and Behaviour All three skulls observed displayed the same overall shape: an elongated braincase in the rear with sagittal and occipital crests; sharply pointed postorbital processes; high, wide zygomatic arches; paired infraorbital foramina just posterior to a sudden narrowing of the skull at the muzzle; wide, deep nasal cavities with turbinate bones; and large, frontally oriented orbits. The zygomatic arch was formed by two bones: the jugal process of the maxilla and a process of the temporal bone. The skull was formed by a number of fused plates (basisphenoid, palatine, zygomatic ventrally; parietal, frontal, temporal, maxilla dorsally), which were roughly correspondent between skulls. www.soappuppy.com /wolf/skull.html   (424 words)

Maxilla - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Each bone consists of a body and four processes - zygomatic, frontal, alveolar, and palatine. The frontal process is well-marked and the body of the bone consists of little more than the alveolar process, the teeth sockets reaching almost to the floor of the orbit. In old age the bone reverts in some measure to the infantile condition; its height is diminished, and after the loss of the teeth the alveolar process is absorbed, and the lower part of the bone contracted and reduced in thickness. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Maxillary   (2426 words)

eMedicine - Fractures, Nasoorbitoethmoid : Article by E Bradley Strong, MD The paired nasal bones attach to the frontal bone superiorly and to the frontal process of the maxilla laterally. Application of a single microplate from the frontal bone, across the entire CF, and onto the maxilla should be avoided, if possible. Bone grafts must be of adequate size to fill the medial canthal defect. www.emedicine.com /ent/topic418.htm   (2426 words)

XII. Surface Anatomy and Surface Markings. 1. Surface Anatomy of the Head and Neck. Gray, Henry. 1918. Anatomy of the Human Body. In front, this line begins at the zygomatic process of the frontal bone as a curved ridge which runs at first forward and upward on the frontal bone, and then curving backward separates the forehead from the temporal fossa. Directly below the orbit a considerable part of the anterior surface of the maxilla and the whole of its alveolar process can be palpated. Near the line of the greatest transverse diameter of the head are the parietal eminences, one on either side of the middle line; further forward, on the forehead, are the frontal eminences, which vary in prominence in different individuals and are frequently unsymmetrical. www.bartelby.com /107/279.html   (2426 words)

UTMB GRAND ROUNDS - MAXILLARY AND PERIORBITAL FRACTURES The two deep articulations are the lateral orbital wall where the zygoma articulates with the orbital process of the sphenoid bone, and across the inferior orbital fissure along the orbital floor where it articulates with the orbital process of the maxilla. The lateral buttress is the zygomaticomaxillary, and it passes laterally from the maxilla to the zygoma and attaches to the skull base at the zygomaticofrontal suture. The midface is composed of the paired maxilla bones which are fused in the midline and which articulate with the frontal bones medially and the zygomas laterally. www.otohns.net /?id=4453   (2426 words)

II. Osteology. 5c. The Exterior of the Skull. Gray, Henry. 1918. Anatomy of the Human Body. The floor is directed upward and lateralward, and is of less extent than the roof; it is formed chiefly by the orbital surface of the maxilla; in front and laterally, by the orbital process of the zygomatic bone, and behind and medially, to a small extent, by the orbital process of the palatine. The surface is traversed by three sutures, viz.: (1) the coronal sutures, nearly transverse is direction, between the frontal and parietals; (2) the sagittal sutures, medially placed, between the parietal bones, and deeply serrated in its anterior two-thirds; and (3) the upper part of the lambdoidal suture, between the parietals and the occipital. The squamosal suture arches backward from the pterion and connects the temporal squama with the lower border of the parietal: this suture is continuous behind with the short, nearly horizontal parietomastoid suture, which unites the mastoid process of the temporal with the region of the mastoid angle of the parietal. www.bartleby.com /107/46.html   (2426 words)
