The zygomatic process of the maxilla (malar process) is a rough triangular eminence situated at the angle of separation of the anterior zygomatic and orbital surfaces. In front it forms part of the anterior surface. Behind it is concave and forms part of the infratemporal fossa. Above it is rough and serrated for articulation with the zygomatic bone. Below it presents the prominent arched border which marks the division between the anterior and infratemporal surfaces.
