What is the Pterygomasseteric sling?
Pterygomasseteric sling: Obliquity of sling permits ____ when other half of the sling is contralateral activated
Shearing
Right masseter and left medial pterygoid would result in lateral excursion to the _______ and a shearing effect
right
Opening the mouth is done by the __________ muscles stabilizing the hyoid bone. The________ muscles and _________ head of the lateral pterygoid muscle then act synergistically to depress the mandible. The________ head of the lateral pterygoid is minimally activated at this time.
