Paul viewed his newborn daughter through the nursery window at the hospital and was distressed because the infant’s skull was badly misshapen. A nurse told him not to worry— the shape of the infant’s head would return to normal in a few days. What caused the misshapen skull, and what anatomic feature of the neonatal skull allows it to return to a more rounded shape?
The maxilla also frequently sustains fractures from blunt trauma to the face. Which structures support and house the upper teeth in this bone?
