Summary

DescriptionHuman skull side suturas right.svg	English: The adult skull is normally made up of 22 bones. Except for the mandible, all of the bones of the skull are joined together by sutures, semi-rigid articulations formed by bony ossification, the presence of Sharpey's fibres permitting a little flexibility Deutsch: Der menschliche Schädel des Erwachsenen besteht normalerweise aus 22 Knochen. Bis auf die Mandibula sind all diese durch Knochennähte verbunden, halb-festen, gelenkartigen Verbindungen, die durch knöcherne Ossifikation entstehen. Das Vorhandensein von "Sharpey Fasern" führt zu einer gewissen Biegsamkeit Français : Le crâne humain adulte est constitué de 22 os. A l'exeption de la mandibule, tous les os du crâne sont reliés entre eux par des sutures, articulations semi-rigides formées par ossification. La présence des fibres de Sharpey permettent une certaine flexibilité. Português: O crânio humano adulto é constituído por 22 ossos. À excepção da mandíbula, todos os ossos do crânio encontram-se ligados por suturas, articulações semi-rígidas formadas por ossificação, com a presença de fibras de Sharpey permitindo alguma flexibilidade.
