The zygomatic arch, also known as the cheekbone or the malar bone, is a prominent facial bone that forms the front part of the zygomatic bone and connects with the temporal bone of the skull. The zygomatic arch is an essential structure in facial anatomy, providing the attachment point for several muscles responsible for facial expressions. Some synonyms for the zygomatic arch include the zygoma, malar prominence, malar bone, temporal arch, and jugal bone. Regardless of the term used, these synonyms represent the same crucial facial bone that plays a vital role in the overall structure of the face.
