Human Temporal Bone and Mandible
Image shows growth of both bones from the end of the embryonic period (week 8, GA week 10) through the fetal period of development (to 9 months).
Temporal Bone
Temporal styloid process growth can also be noted.
- pointed piece of bone extending from the temporal bone just below the ear.
- anchor point for several muscles associated with the tongue and larynx.
Mandible
- develops beside the Meckel's cartilage template.
- bone formation by intramembranous ossification.
- at birth not completely ossified.
- there is a sex difference in overall growth.
