Commonly, the articular process of the maxilla articulates with the autopalatine and ethmoidal region antero-medially. The maxilla is usually the largest bone in the upper jaw assemblage.[TAO] CALOHA:TS-2217 VHOG:0001021 intramembranous bone pneumatized bone dermal bone neural crest-derived structure bone of upper jaw lateral structure
