		Anteriorly, between the orbital surfaces, the frontal bone articulates with the anterior portions of the nasal bones and frontal processes of the maxilla.
		The palatine processes of both maxillae articulate with each other in the midline and with the horizontal plate of the palatine bone posteriorly.
		The orbital surface articulates posteriorly with the greater and lesser wings of the sphenoid bone; medially with the ethmoid, lacrimal, and maxillary bones; and laterally with the zygoma.

		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.
		On the orbital process of the zygomatic bone are the orbital tubercle (Whitnall) and the orifices of one or two canals which transmit the branches of the zygomatic nerve.
		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.

		Some authorities describe the bone as ossifying from four centers: one for the pyramidal process and portion of the vertical part behind the pterygopalatine groove; a second for the rest of the vertical and the horizontal parts; a third for the orbital, and a fourth for the sphenoidal process.
		The palatine bone is situated at the back part of the nasal cavity between the maxilla and the pterygoid process of the sphenoid (Fig.
		It contributes to the walls of three cavities: the floor and lateral wall of the nasal cavity, the roof of the mouth, and the floor of the orbit; it enters into the formation of two fossæ, the pterygopalatine and pterygoid fossæ; and one fissure, the inferior orbital fissure.

		Relevant Anatomy: Each of the two maxillary bones is pyramidal and consists of 4 legs or processes: the zygomatic process, the frontal process, the alveolar process, and the palatine process.
		The maxillary bone is composed of 4 vertical buttresses.
		Maxillary hypoplasia results from the underdevelopment of the maxillary bones and produces midfacial retrusion, creating the illusion of protuberance of the lower jaw.

		The site of origin of JNA is usually broad-based, on the posterolateral wall of the nasal cavity, where the sphenoidal process of the palatine bone meets the horizontal ala of the vomer and the root of the pterygoid process of the sphenoid.
		The two lateral paths are through the superior orbital fissure and directly through the greater wing of the sphenoid bone from the pterygomaxillary and infratemporal fossae.
		Other commonly seen radiographic changes include widening of the inferolateral aspect of the superior orbital fissure, distortion of the roots of the pterygoid plates, erosion of the hard palate, erosion of the medial wall of the maxillary sinus, and displacement of the nasal septum.

	Sphenoid bone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Each bone articulates in front with the ethmoid, laterally with the palatine; its pointed posterior extremity is placed above the vomer, and is received between the root of the pterygoid process laterally and the rostrum of the sphenoid medially.
		Medial to this is a triangular, serrated surface, for articulation with the frontal bone; this surface is continuous medially with the sharp edge, which forms the lower boundary of the superior orbital fissure, and laterally with the serrated margin for articulation with the zygomatic bone.
		The sphenoid bone (os sphenoidale) is a bone situated at the base of the skull in front of the temporals and basilar part of the occipital.

		On the under surface of the vaginal process is a furrow, which is converted into a canal by the sphenoidal process of the palatine bone, for the transmission of the pharyngeal branch of the internal maxillary artery and the pharyngeal nerve from the sphenopalatine ganglion.
		The plates are separated below by an angular cleft, the pterygoid fissure, the margins of which are rough for articulation with the pyramidal process of the palatine bone.
		The anterior surface of the pterygoid process is broad and triangular near its root, where it forms the posterior wall of the pterygopalatine fossa and presents the anterior orifice of the pterygoid canal.

		Each bone consists of a body and four processes - zygomatic, frontal, alveolar, and palatine.
		(' processus zygomaticus; malar process') The zygomatic process is a rough triangular eminence, situated at the angle of separation of the anterior, zygomatic, and orbital surfaces.
		It is separated from the anterior surface by the zygomatic process and by a strong ridge, extending upward from the socket of the first molar tooth.

		They are separated from one another by the vomer, and each is bounded above by the body of the sphenoid, below by the horizontal part of the palatine bone, and laterally by the medial pterygoid plate of the sphenoid.
		This fossa communicates with the orbit by the inferior orbital fissure, with the nasal cavity by the sphenopalatine foramen, and with the infratemporal fossa by the pterygomaxillary fissure.
		The pterygomaxillary fissure is vertical, and descends at right angles from the medial end of the preceding; it is a triangular interval, formed by the divergence of the maxilla from the pterygoid process of the sphenoid.

		The Maxillae are the paired facial bones which contain the upper dention and thus form the upper jaw.
