This document discusses the skeletal structure of the head and neck for dental students. It identifies the bones that make up the skull, including the frontal, parietal, temporal, sphenoid, and occipital bones. It also notes key bony features such as the pterion and zygomatic arch. Finally, it lists muscles that are attached to the bones, like the lateral pterygoid, buccinator, and sternocleidomastoid muscles.
