 <b>temporalb> bone - definition of <b>temporalb> bone in Encyclopedia
The position and size of this foramen are very variable; it is not always present; sometimes it is situated in the occipital bone, or in the suture between the <b>temporalb> and the occipital.
The <b>temporalb> bone is ossified from eight centers, exclusive of those for the internal ear and the tympanic ossicles: one for the squama including the zygomatic process, one forthe tympanic part, four for the petrous and mastoid parts, and two for the styloid process.
The chordatympani nerve passes through a canal (canal of Huguier), separated from the anterior edge of the petrotympanic fissure by a thin scale of bone and situated on the lateral side of the auditory tube, in the retiring angle between the squama and the petrous portion of the <b>temporalb>.

 Zygomatic bone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
On it are seen the orifices of two canals, the zygomatico-orbital foramina; one of these canals opens into the <b>temporalb> fossa, the other on the malar surface of the bone; the former transmits the zygomaticotemporal, the latter the zygomaticofacial nerve.
The frontosphenoidal process is thick and serrated, and articulates with the zygomatic process of the frontal bone.
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.

 Virtual <b>Temporalb> Bone - Abstract
Mastery of the complex anatomic interrelationships of the human <b>temporalb> bone is an essential part of otolaryngologic residency training, requiring untold hours of study not only from anatomic and pathologic texts, but also from within the practical realm of the <b>temporalb> bone lab and operating room.
The final model is an anatomically precise human <b>temporalb> bone that contains many of the important structures encountered during otologic surgery such as the labyrinth, cochlea, facial nerve and ossicles, among others.
Otologists carry this out by drilling into the <b>temporalb> bone, the portion of the skull that houses the very delicate organs of hearing and balance, vital nerves and blood vessels, as well as the tiny bones that conduct sound captured by the tympanic membrane.

the bone forming the lower jaw; the largest and strongest bone of the face, presenting a body and a pair of rami, which articulate with the skull at the tempromandibular joints.
the line or junction formed by a cartilaginous articulation between two bones without an intervening synovial membrane, this articulation often fuses as in the two bones and the two halves of the mandibles [compare to suture and epiphysis].
The maxillae articulate with every bone of the face except the mandible, or lower jawbone.
