| | <b>Sphenoidb> 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 <b>sphenoidb> medially. | | | By the twenty-fifth year the <b>sphenoidb> and occipital are completely fused. | | | The <b>sphenoidb> bone (os sphenoidale) is a bone situated at the base of the skull in front of the temporals and basilar part of the occipital. |

| | Zygomatic bone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The frontosphenoidal process is thick and serrated, and articulates with the zygomatic process of the frontal bone. | | | Its superior margin, rough, and directed horizontally, articulates with the frontal bone behind the zygomatic process. | | | The zygomatic bone is generally described as ossifying from three centers - one for the malar and two for the orbital portion; these appear about the eighth week and fuse about the fifth month of fetal life. |
