Serrate sutures are a type of fibrous joint found in the human skull where the edges of adjacent bones interlock in a saw-tooth pattern, resembling serrated edges. This interlocking structure provides stability and strength to the skull, helping to protect the brain. Common examples of serrate sutures include the sagittal suture and the coronal suture. These sutures are important for the growth and development of the skull during early life.
