If there are 8 cranial bones and 14 facial bones and there are 28 bones in all and 8 1422 then what are the other six bones?

Answer 1

You have a malleus, incus and stapes in each ear which makes up your 6 but also the hyoid bone (around the top of your throat, holds the larynx and other structures in place) is usually counted in with these bones making 29 in all

Who said there are 28 cranial / facial bones? The cranial facial complex is composed of 22 bones. The other bones hyoid, malleus, incus, stapes etc. are not considered part of the cranial facial complex.

Answer 2

The number of cranial bones (8) and facial bones (14) already adds up to 22, so there are 6 bones left to reach a total of 28. These remaining bones could be from the bones of the inner ear, such as the malleus, incus, and stapes, which are the smallest and most delicate bones in the human body.
