The coronoid process is anterior and the condyloid process is posterior; the two are separated by the mandibular notch. The ramus is bound by two surfaces and four borders and contains two processes.
What is the difference between the condylar process and the coronoid process of the mandible?
The condylar process is the bony extrusion behind the coronoid process, which forms the lower bony component of the temporomandibular joint, along with the temporal bone. It is formed differently to the coronoid process, because it has a much more slender stalk with a greater protuberance to top it off.
