Craniofacial Anatomy Exam Bank
Course Introduction
Craniofacial Anatomy is a comprehensive course focusing on the detailed structural and functional organization of the human skull and face. Students will explore the bones, muscles, nerves, blood vessels, and soft tissues that form the craniofacial region, with an emphasis on developmental, clinical, and surgical perspectives. The course integrates embryological development, anatomical variation, and the relationships of craniofacial structures to systemic health. Through lectures, laboratory dissections, and clinical case studies, students will gain a thorough understanding of normal anatomy as well as common congenital and acquired anomalies affecting the craniofacial complex.
