∙ 14y agoThe ethmoid bone is a facial bone. This means that it is a part of the skull located on the anterior portion of the head.
It is located deep of the maxillary bones and superior to the palletine bones.
In laymans terms, In your head, above the roof of your mouth and behind your nose/cheeks.

The nasal cavities are separated by what structure?
nasal septum
What is the nasal cavity bone?
The roof of the nasal cavity is formed by the (2) nasal bonesThe floor is formed by the palatine bone posteriorly and palatine process of the maxilla anteriorlyThe sides of the nasal cavity is mostly made up of the maxillary bone, as well as parts of the palatine bone, medial pterygoid plate and lateral mass of the ethmoid bone
What bone contains the mastoid styloid and zygomatic processes?
Temporal bone.
What are 4 bones containing paranasal sinuses?
The maxillae contain the maxillary sinuses, the ethmoid and sphenoid contain the ethmoid and sphenoid sinuses, respectively. ****Maxilla is a facial bone, the three cranial bones that contain sinuses are ethmoid, sphenoid and frontal.
Four bones containing paranasal sinuses?
The maxillary sinuses are in the maxillary bones under the eyes. The frontal sinuses are in the frontal bone of your forehead. The ethmoid sinuses are in the ethmoid bone between the nose and the eyes. And the sphenoid sinuses are are in the sphenoid bone at the center of the skull base, below the pituitary gland.
Facial bone that contains a paranasal sinus?
frontalWell yes, basically, there are sinuses located within the bones of the face and skull. There are four types. Ethmoid, sphenoid, facial, and maxillary.the Frontal bone :)
What bone is found just posterior to the ethmoid bone?
Posterior means behind or toward the back -- so which bone is behind the ethmoid bone? The sphenoid bone (butterfly shaped one).The bone that is found just posterior to the ethmoid bone in the orbit is the sphenoid. Major paranasal sinuses are the ethmoid, sphenoid, frontal, and maxillary sinuses.
What bone contains the perpendicular plate?
the ethmoid
What bone contains the cribriform plate?
A fractured cribriform plate can result in cerebrospinal fluid leaking into the nose and loss of sense of smell.
What are the four pairs of paranasal sinuses?
Paranasal sinuses are a group of four air-filled spaces. Maxillary sinuses surround the nasal cavity, frontal sinuses are above the eyes, ethmoid sinuses are between the eyes and sphenoid sinuses are behind the eyes.
What bone contains the superior nasal concha?
Ethmoid
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.
Where are the ethmoid sinuses?
The sinuses are paired air pockets located within the bones of the face. They are: the ethmoid sinuses; located between the eyes, just behind the bridge of the nose.
Are Sinuses found in the temporal bone?
The paranasal sinuses (which surround the nose) are found in the following bones: frontal, ethmoid, sphenoid, and maxillary. The maxillary sinuses are the largest of all sinuses. There are also sinuses found near the mastoid process of the temporal bone called the mastoid sinuses. The mastoid sinuses communicates with the inner ear, whereas the paranasal sinuses communicate with the nasal cavity.
