Methods: For a comprehensive understanding of the three-dimensional circummaxillary suture micromorphology, human midpalatal suture (MPS) and pterygomaxillary articular complex from eight subjects’ (five males, three females, 72–88 years old) autopsies were longitudinally scanned with microcomputed tomography. Additional histology was performed for hematoxylin and eosin staining. Sutural micromorphology was assessed by interdigitation index (II), obliteration index (OI) and obliteration number. Intergroup comparisons were performed with Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney <em>U</em> with Bonferroni correction (α = 0.005). Correlation with anteroposterior and craniocaudal gradients was assessed with Spearman's correlation test (α = 0.05). Results: Maxillary region of MPS presented a higher II 1.50 (0.61) and obliteration number per slice 8 (9) (<em>P</em> &lt; 0.005). OI was increased in palatomaxillary 35% (47%) followed by pterygopalatine suture 25% (49%) (<em>P</em> &lt; 0.005). The II and OI of the MPS exhibited only a weak anteroposterior gradient, with relatively low correlations. Obliteration areas were found sporadically along the entire MPS.
