Secondary Palate Development

Animation shows an anterior view of the developmental sequence of secondary palate formation. The frontal region of the head has been removed to show the changes within the oral cavity.

Secondary palate formation is the growth of the palatal shelves towards the midline, from top to bottom:

frontonasal prominence - (FNP) midline forming nasal septum separating nasal cavities.
left and right nasal cavities - showing developing conchae and cartilage.
first pharyngeal arch maxillary processes - (palatal shelves) left and right growing towards midline and elevating above the tongue.
oral cavity - developing from the pharynx.
tongue - developing from the pharyngeal arches.
