Excerpt from The Internal Anatomy of the Face
Many years ago the author began to investigate the variations from the standard typical anatomy of the text-books which constantly presented themselves in his surgical practice. During the past twenty years hundreds of skulls have been sectionized and studied. This investigation completely overturned the author's conception of what was meant by the term typical. There is, doubtless, a typical or typal form for each bone, but it is not often found in nature. If we were to photograph a thousand temporal bones, for example, and make a composite of the entire number, the composite would properly be accepted as figuring the typal temporal. It is possible, though doubtful, that of the thousand bones, two or three could be found which would exactly correspond with the typal bone so pictured. This, in the writer's View, is strong testimony that the typal bone is ideal; that the actual is a variant. It is with these variants that the surgeon and dentist have practically to deal.
