Bregma
The frontal angle is practically a right angle, and corresponds with the point of meeting of the sagittal and coronal sutures; this point is named the bregma. The bregma is known as the anterior fontanelle during infancy. The anterior fontanelle is membranous, and closes within 4-26 months of life.
