  3. Mylohyoid
  4. Geniohyoid
  5. Infrahyoid
  6. GRAVITY- which is extremely important
19
Q

Is the entire TMJ comples part of the infreatemporal fossa?

A

NO. But several components serve as borders.

20
Q

What kind of joint is the TMJ complex? What is different about it?

A

It is a synovial joint that DOES NOT CONTAIN HYALINE CARTILAGE, rather it has dense irregular connective tissue articular disc.

The articular disc divides the superior and inferior compartments of the TMJ complex. It is important to note that each part is a seperate functional unit with its own specific movements.

21
Q

What are the movements of the upper and lower compartments of the TMJ complex?

A

Lower compartment: Is the first movement. It is called the HINGE MOVEMENT (rotational) Results in opening the jaw.

Upper compartment: Is the second movement SLIDING GLIDING MOVEMENT which leads to full opening and protrusion of the mandible.

Note: Before the upper compartment can move the lower compartment must first perform its movement.

22
Q

What are the 3 segments of the Maxillary artery? What muscle is the reference point for these three segments?

A
  1. Mandibular Part (passes anteriorly, deep to the neck of the mandibular condyle)
  2. Pterygoid Part (Passes across the lateral pterygoid)
  3. Ptergopalatine part (Portion after it passes throug the pterygomaxillary fissure to enter the infratempotal fossa

The reference muscle is the Lateral pterygoid

23
Q

What arteries branch off of the Maxillary artery? Which segment do they belong too?

A

mneumonic: MIDBIPS

Mandibular Segment

  1. Middle Meningeal Artery
  2. Inferior Alveolar Arrtery (mental)

Pterygoid Segment

  1. Posterior deep temporal artery
  2. Anterior deep temporal artery
  3. Buccal Artery

Ptergopalatine Segment

  1. Sphenopalatine artery
  2. Infraorbital artery
  3. Posterior Superior alveolar artery
24
Q

Where does the mandibular division of the trigeminal nerve exit the middle cranial fossa? Where does it enter

A

It exits through the foramen ovale and enters the infratemporal fossa

25
Q

What is the mandibular division of the trigeminal nerve mainly divided into?

A

anterior and posterior divisions. Of which the anterior division is primarily motor and the posterior division is primarily sensory.

26
Q

We know that the nerves of the anterior division of the madibular branch of the trigeminal nerve is primarily motor. What nerve from this division is the exception? What muscles does it supply sensory stimulation to?

A

Buccal nerve. It is supplying sensory supply to the external cheek and oral cavity.

27
Q

What nerves belong to the anterior division of the mandibular branch of the trigeminal nerve?

A
  1. Buccal nerve
  2. Anterior and Posterior Deep Temporal nerve
  3. Nerve to the Lateral pterygoid muscle
  4. Nerve to the messeter muscle

mneumonic = BANN

28
Q

From what nerve is the Lesser petrosal nerve derived from? Where does it run/synapse? After it synapses what nerve does it run with? Finally what does it supply?

A

The lesser petrosal nerve is derived from the Glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX). It synapses at the otic ganglion and subsequently the postganglionic fibers run with the Auriculotemporal nerve to supply SECRETOMOTOR fibers to the parotid gland. (GLOAP)

29
Q

Where is the otic ganglion located?

A

It is located deep to the base of V3, and contains cell bodies for post-ganglionic parasympathetic fibers to the Parotid gland, which travel through the auriculotemporal neve.

30
Q

What artery does the Auriculotemporal nerve wrap around?

A

Middle meningeal artery.

31
Q

What nerves belong to the posterior division of the mandibular branch of the trigeminal nerve?

A
  1. Auriculotemporal Nerve
  2. Lingual Nerve
  3. Inferior Alveolar Nere
32
Q

What is special about the Auriculotemporal nerve?

A
  1. The lesser petrosal nerve runs with it.

2. It wraps around the middle meningeal nerve.

33
Q

What is the function of the Lingual nerve? What sensations travel through it?

A

It generally provides sensory innervation from the anterior 2/3rds of the tongue

Pain, temperature and touch travel through the lingual nerve.

34
Q

What is special about the lingual nerve?

A

It receives the chorda tympani nerve of cranial nerve VII

35
Q

Where does the chorda tympani join with the Lingual nerve?

A

In the infratemporal fossa.

36
Q

What is the function of the chorda tympani? What relationship does it have with the submandibular ganglion?

A

supply special visceral afferent (SVA) fibers for taste from the anterior two thirds of the tongue.

The chorda tympani fibers also carry preganglionic parasympathetic (GVE) which runs to the submandibular ganglion where it subsequently synapses; the postganglionic fibers provide secretomotor innervation to the submandibular and sublingual glands.

37
Q

Where is the submandibular ganglion located?

A

Immediately adjacent to the submandibular gland.

38
Q

At what point is the Inferior Alveolar nerve referred to as the Mental nerve?

A

The name changes to Mental nerve when the Alveolar nerve passes through the mental foramen.

39
Q

Which two foramen’s does the Alveolar nerve pass? What is it’s route?

A
  1. Mandibular Foramen
  2. Mental Foramen

The inferior alveolar nerve passes through he mandibular foramen, enters the mandibular canal, and supplies sensory innervation to the mandibular(lower) teeth.

It then continues anteriorly and exits the mental foramen where the name then becomes mental nerve.

40
Q

What nerve does the Inferior Alveolar Nerve give off before entering the mandibular foramen?

A

Nerve to the mylohyoid.

This nerve runs anteriorly and inferiorly to supply MOTOR innervation to the anterior belly of the digastric and mylohyoid muscles.

41
Q

Does the nerve to the Mylohyoid provide motor or sensory innervation? To which muscles?

A

MOTOR:

  1. Anterior belly of the digastric muscle
  2. Mylohyoid muscle
