Nasal bone

The nasal bone (os nasale) is paired and participates in the formation of the bony bridge of the nose. The upper edge of the nasal bone is connected to the nasal part of the frontal bone, the lateral edge - to the frontal process of the maxilla. The nasal bone also participates in the formation of the piriform aperture - the anterior opening of the nasal cavity.
