Zygomatic

Question 1

Frontal Process

Answer 1

Rises vertically and separates the orbit from the temporal fossa.

Question 2

Temporal Process

Answer 2

This extends posteriorly, joining the zygomatic process to the temporal bone to form the zygomatic arch.

Question 3

Maxillary process

Answer 3

This extends towards the midline, forming the inferolateral orbital margin.

Question 4

Masseteric Origin

Answer 4

This is the roughened, expanded inferior edge of the bone. Extends from the zygomaticomaxillary to the temporozygomatic suture. This is the main attachment for the masseter muscle.

Question 5

Zygomaticomaxillary Suture

Answer 5

Sutures between the zygomatics and maxillary.

Question 6

Zygomticoorbital Foramen

Answer 6

These perforate the inferolateral corner of the orbital cavity.
