The human skull consists of the following bones: frontal, occipital, sphenoid, ethmoid, and paired parietal and temporal bones. The parietal and temporal bones are paired, while the others are not. The frontal bone is in the front of the skull, the occipital is in the back, the parietal and temporal bones are on the left and right sides with the parietal bones superior to the temporal bones.

The first '2' in the 2:1:2:3 modern human adult dental formula refers to incisors. There are two incisors in each of the four quadrants in adult modern humans, situated in the frontmost part of the dental arcade, for a total of eight of this type of tooth per individual. The wisdom tooth is the third molar and is not always present in all individuals nor in all quadrants.

Humans skulls contain sutures, which are dense fibrous connective tissue joints that holds the bony plates of the skull together. The lambdoid suture connects the parietal bones with the occipital bone. This suture is actually continuous with the occipitomastoid suture.

The hard palate is comprised of the maxillary and palatine bones. The anterior two-thirds is the palatine process of the maxillary bone, while the posterior one third is the horizontal plate of the palatine bone

The stapes, or stirrup, is the ossicle closest to the skull. It is the last bone in the "chain" of ossicles. The incus, also known as the anvil, is the middle bone. The malleus, or hammer, is the most distal bone from the skull.

The human skull consists of the following bones: frontal, occipital, sphenoid, ethmoid, and paired parietal and temporal bones. The parietal and temporal bones are paired, while the others are not. The frontal bone is in the front of the skull, the occipital is in the back, the parietal and temporal bones are on the left and right sides with the parietal bones superior to the temporal bones.

The occipital bone is a single, saucer-shaped bone located at the back and lower part of the skull. The parietal, temporal, and zygomatic bones, as well as the maxilla, are all paired bones; the two halves of each are located opposite one another along the midsagittal plane.

The hard palate is comprised of the maxillary and palatine bones. The anterior two-thirds is the palatine process of the maxillary bone, while the posterior one third is the horizontal plate of the palatine bone

The foramen magnum is the large hole through which the spinal cord passes connecting the spinal cord to the brainstem. The small holes that connect the nasal cavity to the brain are referred to as the cribriform plate. The internal auditory meatus are the holes in the side of the the head that allow sound to enter the ear canal. The jugular veins enter the skull through the jugular foramen, which is formed between the connection of the temporal and occipital bones.

The parietal bones of the skull reside over the parietal lobes of the brain. The parietal lobe is just on top of the occipital lobe and is responsible for various sensory information processing. The parietal bones of the skull lie on either side of the head, slightly posterior to the ear area, and meet on top of the head.
