The bones of the face consisting of the mandible and the superior maxillary bones form much of the anterior portion of the face. The superior maxillary bones are closely knit together except the mandible which is movable. The superior maxillary bones, being knit together on the median line of the face, are two in number, and of very irregular form.

They occupy the anterior upper part of the face and consist of a
body and processes. Being the largest bones of the face except the
mandible, they enter into the formation of three cavities, namely: the orbit,
the mouth and the nares.

The body is the central part of the bone. The body is shaped something like a pyramid and exhibits four surfaces, namely: the external or facial, the posterior or zygomatic, the superior or orbital and the internal or palatine.

The facial surface is directed forwards and vertically, the lower border being more protruded than the upper one. This surface presents a depression just above the canine and the first bicuspid teeth. It is called the canine fossa. Above the canine fossa, there is the infra-orbital foramen for the nerve of the same name.

The zygomatic surface is situated posteriorly forming the anterior boundary of the zygomatic fossa. Between it and the facial surface there is a well-developed ridge extending from the molar region to the base of the zygomatic process.

The posterior surface has a bulging called tuberosity. It is connected with the palate bones and bounds the antrum behind. Being perforated by three or four small holes the posterior surface transmits nerves and blood vessels to the molar teeth.

The orbital surface of the superior maxillae forms the greater part of the floor of the orbit.

Ex. 6. Read the text "The Maxillary Bones" and answer the question: "What surface has the infra-orbital groove?"

The superior maxillary bones by their union form the arch of the upper jaw and each bone presents for examination a body and four processes, e.g. zygomatic, frontal, alveolar and palatal.

The superior maxillary bones are the largest of the face except the mandible.

The body is the central part of the bone and has four surfaces.

The external surface is irregularly convex and has the so called "canine fossa".

The nasal surface forms the lateral boundary of the nasal cavity.

At the lower aspect of the zygomatic surface there is the "maxillary tuberosity" and the posterior dental vessels and nerves enter the bone.

The superior face of the bone has the infra-orbital groove, which, passing forwards, becomes canalised and divided into two branches, one terminating in the infra-orbital foramen; whilst the smaller branch transmits the anterior dental nerves and vessels to the front teeth of the upper jaw.

2. The lower border is known to be the base of the mandible.

4. Read the text and be ready to answer some questions:

The mandible lies below the anterior part of the cranium and is the skeleton of the lower part of the face. It has the body and a pair of flat, broad rami, which stand up from the posterior part of the body.

Each ramus is surmounted by two processes: the anterior is named the coronoid process, and the posterior is the condyloid one. The condyloid process has an articular part called the head.

The right and left halves of the body of the mandible are united
together in the medial plane in front. Their junction is called the
symphysis menti. The halves of the mandible are joined together by
fibrous tissue at birth, but they are fused together into one bone during
the second year. Each half of the body of the mandible has an outer
and inner surface and an upper and a lower border. The surfaces

slope so that the lower border makes a wider arch than the upper border.

The upper pan is known to be called the alveolar part because it is occupied by a row of alveoli, those are the sockets for the teeth. On each side the sockets for the two incisors, the canine and two premolars are single but for the three molars are double, for each mandibular molar has two roots: anterior and posterior. The lower border is known to be the base of the mandible. The outer surface is slightly convex, but has a depression alongside the symphysis below the incisor teeth. The mental foramen is seen on the outer surface of the mandible. The inner surface is convex and concave at different parts. There is a shallow depression called the submandibular fossa.

The mandibular foramen leads into a canal which runs in the substance of the bone and carries the vessels and nerves for the teeth.

The mandible is the only bone of the face which has movement. The temporamandibular joint is known to make a wide range of mandibular motion. This joint consists of two joints on either side of the mandible, which articulates with temporal bones on either side of the head. The mandible serves as the attachment of the elevator muscles which consist of the masseter, temporal and internal pterygoid muscles.

MOSCOW

Moscow is the capital of Russia its political, economic , commercial and cultural centre. It was founded 8 centuries ago by PrinceYuri Dolgoruky. Historians have accepted the year of 1147 as the start of Moscow's history. Gradually the city became more and more powerful.
