ACTIONS OF THE TEMPORALIS–> What is the ONLY paranormal function?
CLENCHING when the muscle is overused
ACTIONS OF THE TEMPORALIS–> what is it not “normally involved” with, but is not considered paranormal fxn?
lateral movement of the mandible
When speakin’ bout the Medial Pole of the Condyle and the Medial Pterygoid muscle……This relationship on one side establishes the _______ position of the mandible at centric relation.
MID-MOST
When speakin’ bout the Medial Pole of the Condyle and the Medial Pterygoid muscle……The normal _____ of occlusion is possible because the interaction of the medial pole of the condyle with the steep medial _____ of the fossa prevents the mandibular posterior teeth from moving straight ________ towards the midline.
curve….wall…horizontally
When speakin’ bout the Medial Pole of the Condyle and the Medial Pterygoid muscle……In ideal Pt’s mandibular lateral translation is _______ from the fully seated positions of the condyle in the fossa.

tha Lateral Pterry-Sup Domepiece: it is progressively active during ______ movement of the mandible (normal fxn)
closing
tha Lateral Pterry-Sup Domepiece: Frequently displays a _______ as a result of some types of occlusial dysfunction. (parafxn)
SPASM
tha Lateral Pterry-Sup Domepiece: A SPASM of this muscle will result in the articular disc being pulled _______ out of the the glenoid fossa
Anteriorly
tha Lateral Pterry-Sup Domepiece: this muscle works in concert with the action and inaction of the _______.
Inferior head of the lateral pterygoid
tha Lateral Pterry-Sup Domepiece: is DEEP in placement and mostly covered by the ________….CAN the clinician palpate this bad boy??
covered by the medial pterygoid….YES, the clinician can palpate some portion of the muscle (unlike the inferior head, which cannot be palpated)
