  2. Zygomaticotemporal suture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zygomaticotemporal_suture

    The zygomaticotemporal suture (or temporozygomatic suture) is the cranial suture between the zygomatic bone and the temporal bone. [1] This is part of the zygomatic arch. [1] Movement at the suture decreases with development during aging. [1] It has a complex internal structure. [1]

  3. Zygomatic process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zygomatic_process

    The cranial suture between the frontal and zygomatic bone is found here. On its orbital surface, just within the orbital margin and about 11 mm below the zygomaticofrontal suture is a tubercle of varying size and form, but present in 95 per cent of skulls (Whitnall 43). This tubercle is not seen in the picture.

  4. Zygomatic arch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zygomatic_arch

    In anatomy, the zygomatic arch, or cheek bone, is a part of the skull formed by the zygomatic process of the temporal bone (a bone extending forward from the side of the skull, over the opening of the ear) and the temporal process of the zygomatic bone (the side of the cheekbone), the two being united by an oblique suture (the zygomaticotemporal suture); [1] the tendon of the temporal muscle ...

    In the human skull, the zygomatic bone (from Ancient Greek: ζῠγόν, romanized: zugón, lit. 'yoke'), also called cheekbone or malar bone, is a paired irregular bone, situated at the upper and lateral part of the face and forming part of the lateral wall and floor of the orbit, of the temporal fossa and the infratemporal fossa.

    The temporal bone consists of four parts—the squamous, mastoid, petrous and tympanic parts. [1] [2] The squamous part is the largest and most superiorly positioned relative to the rest of the bone.

    The zygomaticofrontal suture (or frontozygomatic suture) is the cranial suture between the zygomatic bone and the frontal bone. The suture can be palpated just lateral to the eye. The suture can be palpated just lateral to the eye.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibrous_joint

    A suture is a type of fibrous joint that is only found in the skull (cranial suture). The bones are bound together by Sharpey's fibres . A tiny amount of movement is permitted at sutures, which contributes to the compliance and elasticity of the skull.
