Within the nasal cavity are two platelike bones called the ____ inferior nasal conchae
How many pairs of nasal conchae are there and what are they? 3, superior and middle pairs are parts of the ethmoid bone, and then the inferior pair which are separate facial bones.
Purpose of nasal conchae? divide nasal cavities into compartments to break up the flow of air before it reaches the lungs
The ______ and _____ of the ethmoid bone help separate the cranium from the facial bone mass cribiform plate and crista galli
inferior nasal concha articulates with what cranial bone? What 3 facial bones? ethmoid. Maxilla, lacrimal, and palatine
Each palatine bone articulates with what 2 cranial bones? what four facial bones? sphenoid and ethmoid. Maxilla, inferior nasal conchae, vomer, adjacent palatine
The septum is formed superiorly by the ___________, and inferiorly by the _____. perpendicular plate of the ethmoid, vomer
Nasal septum cartilage is termed septal cartilage
Deviated septum usually occurs between the ____ and ____ septa cartilage and vomer
When do the two bones of the mandible (in an infant..only...) join to become one? about 1 year
Anterior to the angle/gonion is termed _____. Area superior to the angle/gonion is termed the _____. body (which extends from left angle around to the right), ramus
_________ or ridge, extends along entire superior portion of the body of the mandible where teeth are rooted alveolar process
Single mandible body forms from each lateral half and unites at the anterior midline and is called symphysis menti
flat triangular area below symphysis menti, marked by 2 protuberances is called? mental protuberance. (center of this is mental point)
Center of the mental protuberance of the mandible is termed? mental point
Ramus of mandible terminates in a U shaped notched termed mandibular notch
process at anterior end of mandibular notch is termed the _____. The posterior process is termed the _____. coronoid process, condyloid process
How to remember coronoid of mandible and ulna and coracoid of scapula? "n" in coronoid with "n" in ulna and mandible
The ______ process of mandible consists of two parts: head and the neck condyloid
The condyle of the _____ process fits into the TM fossa of the temporal bone to form the TMJ condyloid
TMJ is located where in proportion to the EAM? just anterior and slightly superior
TMJ is classified as a ______ type of joint. synovial (diarthrodial)
Type of joint involving the teeth and mandible and maxillae ? gomphosis subclass of fibrous
How to tell if mouth is open or closed on a TMJ position? condyle moves forward to the front edge of the fossa
Only the ___ sinuses are part of the facial bone structure maxillary
What sinuses have a definite cavity at birth? maxillary
The frontal and sphenoid sinuses begin to be visible on radiographs at age ___-__. All paranasal sinuses generally are developed by what age? 6-7 years old. All developed by late teen years
Older term for maxillary sinus antrum of highmore
Floor of each maxillary sinus is slightly below the level of the floor of each nasal fossa
Which sinuses rarely become aerated before age 6 frontal
Ethmoid sinuses are contained within the ______ or _____ of the ethmoid bone. lateral masses or labyrinths
When viewed from the side, why do the anterior ethmoid sinuses appear to fill the orbits? portions of the ethmoid sinuses are in the lateral masses of the ethmoid bone, which helps form the medial wall of each orbit
Sphenoid sinuses lie in the body of the sphenoid, which is directly below the ___ sella turcica
sphenoid effusion is what (if air fluid levels are seen in sphenoid sinus) basal skull fracture, blood or cerebral fluid is leaking through fracture into sinus
Drainage/communication passageways of the sinuses make up the _____________, which can become obstructed, leading to an infection of these sinuses termed ______. osteomeatal complex, sinusitis
two key passageways of osteomeatal complex? infundibulum and middle nasal meatus
Rim of the orbit, which corresponds to the outer circular portion of the cone, is called the____. Posterior portion of the cone is called ___. base, apex
With the head placed in an upright frontal or lateral position with the OML parallel to the floor, each orbit would project superiorly at an angle of ___ and toward the MSP at an angle of ___. 30, 37
