Q

What is a foramen? (plural foramina)

Example and location?

A

Cranium landmark

31
Q

What is a protuberance?

Example?

A

Cranium landmark

A bony projection or bulge

ie - occipital protruberance;

32
Q

Opening for spinal cord in the cranium

A

Foramen Magnum

33
Q

What is a process?

Example and location?

A
  • Cranium landmark
  • An extension of bone from its main body
  • Acts as attatchment/insertion sites for muscles and ligaments

ie - extention of the temporal bone; behind ear

34
Q

Which landmark is named after its neighboring bone due to its placement?

A

Process

35
Q

Pen line extension of temporal bone

A

Styloid Process

36
Q

What is a fossa? (pl Fossae)

Example and location?

A

Cranium landmark
A shallow depression in bone

ie - glennoid fossa; debression where mandible joins temporal bone in TMJ

37
Q

What is an eminence?

A

Cranium landmark
A rounded projection/elevation on a bone

ie - articular eminence; projection of temporal bone that stops mandible from over extending

38
Q

What is a meatus?

Mee-ay-tus

A

Cranium landmark

External opening of a canal
ie - external auditory meatus

39
Q

How many facial bones are there?

A

14

40
Q

What are the names of the facial bones?

Which ones are not doubled?

A
Maxilla x2
Palatine x2
Zygomatic (zygoma) x2
Nasal x2
Lacrimal x2
Inferior Conchae x2

Mandible
Vomer

41
Q

Suture that unites the Maxilla(s)

A

Median palatine suture

42
Q

Functions of Maxilla

A
  • forms shape of upper face
  • supports maxillary dentition
  • forms floor of nose
  • forms part of orbital cavity
43
Q

How many process does the maxilla have?

What are they called?

A

4 processes

  • Alveolar
  • Frontal
  • Zygomatic
  • Palatine
44
Q

Location of alveolar process of the maxilla

A

Above maxillary dentition

45
Q

Location of frontal process of the maxilla

A

Runs up side of the nose

46
Q

Location of zygomatic process of the maxilla

A

Mesial to “cheek bones”

47
Q

Location of zygomatic process of the maxilla

A

Anterior 1/3 of palate

48
Q

How many sutures are in the palate?

A

2

49
Q

Suture that joins maxilla and palatine bones

A

Transverse Suture

50
Q

Where are the infraorbital foramina?

A

superior to maxillary bicuspids

51
Q

Where are the posterior superior alveolar (PSA) foramina?

A

Superior to 17 and 27 distal buccal root

52
Q

Where is the incisive foramen?

A

posterior to central incisors in palate surface

53
Q

Where is the maxillary tuberosity?

A

Distal to the last molar on either side

Slants up and back

54
Q

Where are the maxillary sinuses?

A

Under each eye beside nose

55
Q

Functions of the maxillary sinuses

A
  • gives depth to voice
  • lightens bone weight
  • believed to store warm air for respiratory process
56
Q

Name 4 maxilla landmarks

A
  • maxilla tuberosity
  • maxillary sinuses
  • nasal cavity
  • infraorbital ridges
57
Q

What is the alveolar process of the maxilla responsible for?

A

Supporting maxillary dentition

58
Q

A layer of compact bone that overlies the cancellous bone of the alveolar process on the mandible and maxilla.

A

Cortical plate

59
Q

Why is the maxilla bone lighter than the mandible bone?

A
  • has less cortical plate, more cancellous bone

- maxillary sinuses

60

61
Q

What is the lamina dura made of?

A

Compact bone

62
Q

Key characteristics of lamina dura
