The facial skeleton, consisting of bones situated between the cranial base and the
mandibular region. While some consider the facial bones to comprise the hyoid (HYOID
BONE), palatine (HARD PALATE), and zygomatic (ZYGOMA) bones, MANDIBLE, and MAXILLA,
others include also the lacrimal and nasal bones, inferior nasal concha, and vomer
but exclude the hyoid bone. (Jablonski, Dictionary of Dentistry, 1992, p113)
