The major facial bones are located at the front of the skull and form the framework of the face, supporting key features like the eyes, nose, and mouth. These bones include:
Maxilla – the upper jawbone that holds the upper teeth and forms part of the nose and eye sockets
Mandible – the lower jawbone, the only movable facial bone
Zygomatic bones – also known as cheekbones, located on either side of the face
Nasal bones – two small bones that form the bridge of the nose
Lacrimal bones – small bones located in the inner corner of each eye socket
Palatine bones – located at the back of the oral cavity, forming part of the hard palate
Vomer – a thin bone forming part of the nasal septum
Inferior nasal conchae – curved bones within the nasal cavity that help filter and humidify air
The zygomatic bones are particularly important in procedures like Zygomatic Dental Implants in Kondapur, where implants are anchored into the cheekbone to support dental prosthetics, especially in patients with severe upper jaw bone loss.
