Head muscles that insert on bones include the temporalis, masseter, and occipitofrontalis. The temporalis inserts on the coronoid process of the mandible, while the masseter inserts on the angle and ramus of the mandible, both playing crucial roles in chewing. The occipitofrontalis, though primarily involved in facial expressions, inserts at the skin and muscles of the forehead and scalp. Together, these muscles facilitate various movements of the jaw and face.
