Fig. 45.—Left Half of Mandible of Horse; Medial View, 1, Body of mandible (median section): 2, 2', horizontal and vertical parts of ramus; 3, interalveolar border; 4, depression for attachment of genio-hyoideus muscle; 5, mandibular foramen; 6, vascular impression: 7, angle; 8, condyle; 9, coronoid process; 10, mandibular notch; 11, incisor teeth; 12, canine tooth; 13, cheek teeth. its posterior part there is a smooth impression (Incisura vasorum) where the facial vessels and parotid duct turn round the bone. Behind this point the border curves sharply upward, forming the angle of the mandible (Angulus mandibulse); this part is thick and has two roughened lips, separated by a considerable intermediate space; near the condyle it becomes narrower. The anterior extremity joins the body. The articular extremity comprises the coronoid process in front and the condyle behind, the two being separated by the mandibular notch (Incisura mandibulie), through which the nerve to the masseter muscl(> passes. The coronoid process (Processus coronoideus) is thin transversely and curved slightly medially and backward. It projects upward in the temporal fossa and furnishes insertion to the temporal muscle. The condyle of the mandible (Condylus mandibulse) lies at a much lower level than the end of the coronoid process. It is elongated trans- versely and articulates with the squamous temporal through the medium of an ' This is also commonly called the inferior maxillary foramen. ^ This is also termed the inferior dental Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Sisson, Septimus, 1865-1924.
