What bones are paranasal sinuses?
The bones that contain the paranasal sinuses are the maxillary, frontal, ethmoid, and sphenoid bones. They are easy to remember in relation to the sinuses because each sinus has the same name as the bone it is in.
Do girls get snot in them?
The female sinus is much the same as the male sinus.
Is sinus and virus the same?
yes
I cant taste or smell anything im not ill or anything?
Same thing happened to me and it turned out I had sinus polyps. I had them removed (twice) and can smell and taste again...I suggest you see an ENT
What is pneumatization?
It's the same thing as a hollow bone. That's one of the characteristics birds posse than enables them to fly (if their bones had the same weight as ours, they wouldn't be able to lift). Some dinosaurs had the same type of bones. Hope it helped.
What neural structure can be seen in a mid sagittal view of the human brain?
That structure is called as falx cerebri. You have superior sagittal sinus above and inferior sagittal sinus running below the same.
What is the name of the area the bone on the head and at the back of the ears?
Mastoid Process is the protuberance behind your ear, the occipital is the backside of your head, the perietal lobes are the sides of your skull, the frontal lobe the front. you also have a square inch lobe called the temperal lobe.
You recently had tooth 14 extracted it was cracked and had an old root canal your DDS said something about a root tip and that you should go back to the oral surgeon and have him remove same Normal?
Yes, it sounds quite 'normal'. Teeth with root canals are often quite brittle and root tips can fracture easily during extractions. Most general dentists are not comfortable in trying to recover root tips in this area due to the close proximity of the maxillary sinus. The floor of the sinus can be perforated and sometimes the root tip can even enter the sinus itself. A situation like this is best treated by an oral surgeon, because they have the training and the experience to manage any potential complications. It sounds like your dentist has given you the best advice and has your interests at heart.
Is epulis granulomatosa cancer?
no..its not cancer...epulis granulomatosa is a post-surgical lesion emanating from an extraction socket. It can be misdiagnosed with lesions of similar appearance, for example, foreign body or pyogenic granulomas, or as a herniation of the maxillary sinus. Based on clinical appearance and microscopic description, granulomas all appear to represent essentially the same lesion. However, pathonomonically, the epulis granulomatosa emanates only from an extraction socket; the other granulomas can be found anywhere in the body.
Are average and range the same thing?
No, they are not the same thing. Mean and average are the same thing.
Is the inter maxillary suture the same as the medial palatine suture?
No, the intermaxillary suture is different from the medial palatine suture. The intermaxillary suture refers to the joint between the two maxillary bones in the midline of the skull. On the other hand, the medial palatine suture is the joint between the two palatine bones in the midline of the hard palate.
How does barometric pressure affect people?
If the barometric pressure drops suddenly, as it does often before a storm, and your sinus passageway is blocked, the higher pressure in the sinus will press on the bones surrounding it to cause a horrible headache. When your nose is stuffy, the inner linings of your nose are swollen, and the same swelling can shut the sinus passageway, preventing air pressure inside your sinus from changing to balance the pressure outside, and you can develop a sinus headache. from: http://www.drmirkin.com/morehealth/1254.html
