Where the nose connects to the frontal bone
Which bone contains the foramen magnum?
occipital
What comes through the foramen magnum?

- mandibular foramen
What are the bones of the anterior face?
- Mandible
- Maxillae
- Zygomatic bones
What is craniosynotosis?
birth defect in which one or more of the joints between the bones of the skull closes prematurely, before the brain is fully formed.
(holes are called fontanel)
What are the movements made by the mandible?
- hinging
- gliding
- lateral
What are the elevator muscles of the mandible? (3)
- masseter
- medial pterygoid
- temporalis
What are the depressor muscles of the mandible? (4)
- digasticus
- mylohyoid
- geniohyoid
- lateral pterygoid
Which mandible elevator is used for quick movements?
temporalis
What are the portions of the maxillae? (4)
- frontal process (articulates with frontal bone)
- zygomatic process
- premaxilla (alveolar process)
- pallatine processes (back of the roof of mouth)
What are the bones of the interior face? (4)
- nasal bones - bridge of nose
- palatine bones - hard palate
- nasal conchae - small bones on lateral surface of nasal cavity
- vomer (part of nasal septum)
Which bones are the dividing lines for the cranial case and nasal pasages?
ethmoid and sphenoid
which part of the ethmoid bone is also a part of the nasal septum?
perpendicular plate
what are the cribriform plates?
part of ethmoid; separate nasal and cranial space
the nasal conchae are part of which bone?
ethmoid bone
what are the orbital plates of the ethmoid?
form medial orbit
What are the parts of the ethmoid bone?
- crista galli
- perpendicular plate
- middle and superior nasal conchae
- cribriform plates
- orbital plates
Which bone has greater and lesser wings and the pterygoid process?
sphenoid bone
What are the parts of the vocal tract?
Oral cavity
nasal cavity
pharyngeal cavity
What are the boundaries of the oral cavity? (6)
- anterior faucial pillar (palatoglossal)
- posterior faucial arch (palatopharyngeal)
- incisor teeth and lips
- teeth and cheeks
- tongue
- hard palate
What are the structures of the oral cavity? (6)
- lips
- cheek
- tongue
- hard palate
- velum
- teeth
What are the landmarks of the lips? (4)
- vermillion border
- cupid’s bow
- philtrum
- columella
What are the transverse muscles of the lips? (2)
- orbicularis oris
- risorius
What does the orbicularis oris do?
encircles the mouth, acts as sphincter to purse the lips
What does the risorius do?
fibers insert into the corners of the mouth; assists to retract the lips
