The head rests on the top part of the vertebral column, with the skull joining at C1 (the first cervical vertebra known as the atlas). The skeletal section of the head and neck forms the top part of the axial skeleton and is made up of the skull, hyoid bone, auditory ossicles, and cervical spine. The skull can be further subdivided into:
If certain bones of the skull grow too fast then premature fusion of the sutures, craniosynostosis, may occur. [1] This can result in skull deformities. [1] These deformities include: [3] Brachycephaly (both sides) Plagiocephaly (one side only) Oxycephaly (both sides)
