The lower jaw bone. The head of the mandible, on either side, articulates with a hollow on the underside of the temporal bone, just in front of the ear. This is called the temporo-mandibular joint. The mandible is pulled upwards by powerful masticatory muscles. In dislocation of the mand...

The static and dynamic characteristics of the jaws, tongue, and other structures surrounding the oral cavity of mammals strongly affect the types of environments in which a particular mammal can successfully function. A highly specialized mouth and tongue, such as that noted in anteaters by Sonntag...

An overview of the bones of the pelvis, pelvic cavity, pelvic floor muscles, vessels and innervation with labeled diagrams of the male vs female pelvis ➤
In contrast to former surface-rendered three-dimensional visualizations of the temporal bone, a volumetric-rendering algorithm was used. This technique allows automated segmentation, thresholding, and simultaneous visualization of different planes (cube-cutting) in near-real time. We were able to ...
The oral cavity is bounded by the teeth, tongue, hard palate, and soft palate. These structures make up the mouth and play a key role in the first step of digestion: ingestion.
The replica of the human disarticulated skeleton includes one hand and foot on wire, and one hand and foot loosely articulated.
Hyoid bone, U-shaped bone situated at the root of the tongue in the front of the neck and between the lower jaw and the largest cartilage of the larynx, or voice box. The primary function of the hyoid bone is to serve as an attachment structure for the t
