Exam 4 Pt. 6 Flashcards
components of tongue
tip, dorsum, base, root
foramen cecum
deep recess in tongue
terminal sulcus
marks posterior palatine surface
central sulcus
divides tongue into left and right sides
papillae
contains tastes buds
pharyngeal surface
posterior 1/3 of tongue, located in oropharynx
superior longitudinal
f - elevates, assists in retraction, or deviates the tip of the tongue
inferior longitudinal
f - pulls tip of the tongue downward, assists in retraction, and deviates the tongue
transverse
f - provide a mechanism for narrowing the tongue
vertical
f - pull the tongue down into the floor of the mouth
styloglossus
f - draws the tongue back and up
o - styloid process
i - inferior sides of the tongue
hyoglossus
f - pulls sides of the tongue down
o - hyoid
i - sides of the tongue between styloglossus and inferior longitudinal muscles
genioglossus
f - anterior fibers retract the tongue, posterior fibers protrude the tongue, together anterior and posterior fibers depress the tongue.
o - inner mandibular surface at the symphysis
i - tip and dorsum of tongue and corpus hyoid
palatoglossus
f - elevates the tongue or depresses the soft palate
o - palate
i - sides of posterior tongue
chondroglossus
f - depresses the tongue
masseter
f - elevates the mandible
o - zygomatic arch
i - ramus of the mandible and coronoid process
temporalis
f - elevates the mandible and draws it back if protruded
o - temporal fossa of temporal and parietal bones
i - coronoid process and ramus
medial pterygoid muscle
f - elevates mandible
o - medial pterygoid plate and fossa
i - mandibular ramus
lateral pterygoid muscle
f - protrudes the mandible
o - lateral pterygoid plate and the greater wing of sphenoid
i - ptergoid fovea of the mandible
digastricus anterior belly
f - pulls the hyoid forward, depresses mandible if in conjunction with anterior digastricus
o - mandible
i - hyoid
digastricus posterior belly
f - pulls the hyoid back, depresses mandible if in conjunction with anterior digastricus
o - mastoid process of temporal bone
i - hyoid
mylohyoid
f - depresses the mandible
o - mylohyoid line
i - hyoid
geniohyoid
f - depresses the mandible
o - mandible
i - hyoid
tensor veli palatini
f - dilates eustachian tube
levator veli palatini
f - elevates and retracts the posterior velum
palatpharygeus
f - narrows the pharynx, lowers the soft palate
mausculus uvulae
f - shortens the soft palate
superior pharyngeal constrictor
f - pulls pharyngeal wall forward, constricts pharyngeal diameter
middle pharyngeal constrictor
f - narrows diameter of the pharynx
thyropharyngeus
f - reduces diameter of the lower pharynx
cricopharyngeus
f - constricts superior orifice of esophagus
salpinopharyngeus
f - elevates the lateral pharyngeal wall
stylopharyngeus
f - elevates and opens the pharynx
