Introduction to the Skull Bones

Overview of the Class

• The class is set in a different scenario, with a visual aid accompanying the lesson on skull bones.

• This lesson is part of a playlist focused on the skeletal system, encouraging viewers to explore other related classes.

Division of Skull Bones

• Skull bones are categorized into two groups: neurocranium and viscerocranium.

• The neurocranium consists of bones that directly contact the nervous system, including both the upper (calvaria) and lower parts (base).

Neurocranium Details

Composition of Neurocranium

• The neurocranium typically comprises eight bones, excluding auditory ossicles which some authors include.

• Key bones include:

• Frontal bone (single)

• Parietal bones (two)

• Temporal bones (two)

• Occipital bone (single)

• Sphenoid bone (single)

• Ethmoid bone (single)

Specific Bones Explained

• The frontal bone is located at the forehead and is unique.

• Parietal bones are paired and form part of the upper skull structure.

• Temporal bones are lateral; they often show signs of aging like graying hair around them.

Viscerocranium Overview

Composition of Viscerocranium

• The viscerocranium consists of 14 bones, not including the frontal bone.

• Key components include:

• Zygomatic bones (paired), forming cheek prominence.

• Maxillae (paired), contributing to facial structure.

Additional Bone Structures

• Nasal bones are present in pairs at the superior nasal region.

• Two lacrimal bones contribute to tear drainage pathways within orbits.

• A single vomer forms part of the nasal septum alongside other structures.

Functional Aspects

Unique Features

• Mandible is notable as it’s a single movable bone articulating with temporal bone via temporomandibular joint (ATM).

Palate Structure

Overview of the Human Skull: Structure and Components

Anatomy of the Skull

• The human skull consists of 14 bones that are part of the viscerocranium, including two zygomatic bones, two maxillae, two nasal bones, two lacrimal bones, the vomer bone, two inferior nasal conchae, the mandible, and two palatine bones.

• The cranium is divided into two main parts: the neurocranium and the viscerocranium. The neurocranium comprises eight bones.

Bones of the Neurocranium

• Key components of the neurocranium include:

• Frontal bone

• Parietal bones

• Temporal bones

• Occipital bone

• Sphenoid bone

• Ethmoid bone
