there are 23 bones in your skull and jaw altogether.
The Mandible Jaw bone.
The bone that protects the brain is the skull.
There are fourteen bones that make up the face of the skull. We can feel and see the outline of only a few of these bones. These bones include the zygomatic bones (cheekbones), the nasal bones of the bridge of the nose, the maxilla (upper jaw), and the mandible (lower jaw).
The skull doesn't actually have any joints. The spaces between the bones of the cranium are call sutures. They're there because when a human is born the bones are separated to allow rapid growth of the brain and skull. As the person ages, the bones become fused together to create an entirely unified skull. The skulls of elderly people barely show the lines of the sutures at all, which comes in handy sometimes when determining the age of a dead body.
Actually, it's the lack of bones. Mammals' jaws have only the dentary (the lower jaw bone) and the squamosal (the upper jaw bone). Non-mammalian amniotes have two more bones in the skull: the articular in the lower jaw and the quadrate in the upper jaw. In them, the articular and the quadrate fuse to form the joint. In mammals, the articular is the malleus of the middle ear, and the quadrate is the incus.
