68. Muscles of mastication Flashcards
Identify
- Temporalis muscle
- Insertion of masseter muscle (cut away)
- Buccinator muscle
- Orbicularis oris muscle
muscles of mastication
- are derived embryologically from ____
- are innervated by ___
- the 1st pharyngeal (branchial) arch
- the mandibular division of the trigeminal nerve (CN V3)
Identify 1. O & I
- Temporalis muscle
Origin: Temporalis muscle arises from the floor of the temporal fossa and the deep surface of the temporal fascia.
Insertion: The tip and medial surface of the coronoid process and anterior border of the ramus of the mandible.
Identify 1. Action
- Temporalis muscle
Action:
Elevates mandible Retrudes mandible (posterior fibers)
Identify 1. Innervation
- Temporalis muscle
Innervation: Anterior and posterior deep temporal nn. from mandibular division of trigeminal n.
Which muscle is the Main postural muscle that maintains mandible in rest position?
Temporalis muscle
What are the 4 muscles of mastication?
- Temporalis muscle
- Masseter muscle
- Medial pterygoid muscle
- Lateral pterygoid muscle
Identify
- Masseter muscle
- Parotid duct (cut)
- Buccinator muscle
- Temporalis muscle
1 artery, 1 structure and nerves that pass superficial to masseter
Parotid duct, transverse facial a., and branches of facial n.
Identify 1. O & I
- Masseter muscle
Origin: Masseter muscle arises from the inferior border and medial surface of the zygomatic arch.
Insertion: Massester muscle attaches to the lateral surface of the mandible and lateral surface of the coronoid process.
Identify 1. Action
- Masseter muscle
Action: Masseter muscle closes the jaw by elevating the mandible.
Identify 1. Innervation?
- Masseter muscle
Innervation: Masseteric n. from mandibular division of trigeminal n.
Identify
- Masseter (deep head)
- Masseter (superficial head)
Structure that pierces the buccinator muscle?
the parotid duct which drains the parotid gland
Elevation of the jaw (except masseter m.) also is assisted by the actions of ____ (2 muscles)
the temporalis and medial pterygoid muscles.
Identify 1 - 3
- Medial pterygoid muscle
- Sphenomandibular ligament
- Levator veli palatini muscle (cut)
