Facial Bones “Monkeys in New Zealand like peaches very much.”
● Maxilla 2 largest facial bones, upper jaw & surround inferior nasal
● Mandible 1 lower jaw bone, strongest bone in skull
● Lacrimal 2 medial wall of each orbit, smallest bone of skull
● Zygomatic 2 cheekbones
● Vomer 1 inferior portion of nasal septum, looks like blade of plow
● Nasal 2 bridge of nose
● Palatine 2 Posterior Nasal Cavity
