Behind this internal ridge thebony substance bulges still farther lingually, running over into thelingula after having first formed a second convex excrescence (, 187, 188). After the correct point of insertion, about r cm. above the levelof the masticating surface of the last molar, has been found the obliqueforamen is reached, just above the lingula, with the needle (Figs. 184,187, 188).
