The maxillae, or maxillary bones, are a pair of fused bones that form the upper jaw and central part of the facial skeleton. They support the upper teeth, contribute to the formation of the orbits (eye sockets), and play a crucial role in the structure of the nasal cavity and palate. Additionally, the maxillae are involved in functions such as chewing and speech.
