title: Greater palatine foramen
text: The greater palatine foramen is, along with the lesser palatine foramen, one of two foramina (holes) in each of the left and right palatine bones which form the posterior roof of the human mouth, known as the palate. It is sometimes known as the major palatine foramen. The greater palatine foramen functions primarily for the transmission of the descending palatine vessels and greater palatine nerve; running anteriorly (forward) and medially from it is a groove, for the same vessels and nerve.
