Q

what are the muscles of the tongue?

A

The tongue has 2 groups of muscles: intrinsic and extrinsic muscle.

A) Intrinsic muscle: 4 muscles
1. Superior longitudinal muscle
2. Inferior longitudinal muscle
3. Vertical muscle
4. Transverse muscle

B) Extrinsic muscles
These are muscles which arise from structures outside the tongue and inserted into the substance of the tongue.
1. Genioglossus.
2. Hyoglossus.
3. Styloglossus.
4. Palatsglossus.

Q

what is the function of longitudinal muscles of the tongue?

A

The superior longitudinal muscle:
- Curls the tip upwards and rolls it posteriorly.

The inferior longitudinal muscles:
- They curl the tip of the tongue inferiorly, and act with the superior muscle to retract and widen the tongue.

Q

what does TMJ consist of?

A

❖ It has two (superior and inferior) synovial cavities divided by a fibrous articular disc.

❖ It Consists of:
➢an upper gliding joint between the articular tubercle and mandibular fossa above and the articular disk below where forward gliding or protrusion and backward gliding or retraction (translation by dentists) takes place.

➢ a lower hinge joint between the disk and the mandibular head (condyle) where elevation or closing and depression or opening of the jaw takes place.
