4: Muscles Of The Neck Flashcards
Difference between temporal fossa and infratemporal fossa
Temporal: superior to zygomatic arch
Infratemporal: inferior to zygomatic arch
Four muscles of mastication
Temporalis, masseter, lateral pterygoid, medial pterygoid
general innervation to Muscles of mastication
CN V3
General innervation to TMJ
CN V3
Temporalis O and I
O: temporal fascia and fossa
I: coronoid process of mandible
Temporalis N
Deep temporal N
Temporalis A (3 parts)
Vertical fibers: elevates mandible
Horizontal fibers: retract mandible
Unilaterally: lateral movement of mandible
Masseter O and I
O: zygomatic arch
I: mandibular ramus and angle, deep head also on coronoid process
Masseter N
Masseteric N
Masseter A
Elevates mandible, protraction, retraction, side-to-side motion
Lateral pterygoid O and I
O: greater wing of sphenoid, lateral pterygoid plate
I: neck of mandible, TMJ
Lateral pterygoid N
Lateral pterygoid N
lateral pterygoid A: bilaterally and unilateral
Bilaterally: protrudes mandible, opens mouth
Unilateral: side-to-side movement
Medial pterygoid N
Medial pterygoid N
Medial pterygoid O and I
O: maxilla, palatine bone, pterygoid plate, pterygoid fossa
I: pterygoid rugosity, medial mandible
