Which meatus contains the hiatus semilunaris?

  1. upper

  2. middle

  3. lower

  4. inferior

The correct answer is: middle

The correct answer is the middle meatus. The hiatus semilunaris is a space in the middle meatus of the nasal cavity. It is an important landmark that marks the location of the opening of the frontal, anterior ethmoid, and maxillary sinuses, as well as the nasolacrimal duct. Understanding the anatomy and landmarks of the nasal cavity is crucial for dental professionals to assess and diagnose conditions related to the sinuses and nasal passages.
