A

Maxillary artery (muscular branches)

31
Q

What is the function of lateral pterygoid?

A

Bilaterally: protrude mandible

Unilaterally and alternately: side-to-side grinding

32
Q

35
Q

What supplies medial pterygoid?

A

Facial artery and maxillary artery

36
Q

What is the function of medial pterygoid?

A

Bilaterally: protrude and elevate mandible

Unilaterally and alternately: produces side-to-side movements

37
Q

What protracts the jaw?

A

Lateral pterygoid (most important), medial pterygoid, masseter (limited)

38
Q

What retracts the jaw?
