significance of the sphenopalatine foramen
Recall that the maxillary artery enters the PPF through the pterygomaxillary fissure. A branch of that artery, the sphenopalatine artery (represented by the blue pipe cleaner), passes from the pterygopalatine fossa through the sphenopalatine foramen and into the nasal cavity
what has a proximal attachment on the mandible
digastric and mylohyoid
what muscle has proximal attachment here
stylohyoid
(styloid process of the temporal)
