Face Flashcards
How many bones are in the skull?
22
What are the two categories of skull bones?
Neurocranium
Viscerocranium
What are the neurocranium bones?
cranial vault
parietal temporal frontal occipital sphenoid ethmoid
What are the viscerocranium bones of the skull?
face
mandible maxilla palatine zygomatic lacrimal vomer nasal
Where do the muscles of the facial expression originate and insert?
Originate from bone
Insert into skin
What innervates ALL of the muscles of facial expression?
same motor innervation
Facial nerve CN 7
through parotid gland
Frontalis
Origin: occipital: highest nuchal line and mastoid process, Frontal: superior fibers of upper fascial muscles
Insertion: galeal aponeurosis
Action: wrinkles forehead and fixes galeal aponeurosis
Nerve: posterior auricular and temporal branches of facial VII
lifts up eye brows
Orbicularis oculi
upper eyelid pulls up
closes eye
circular muscle so constricts opening
Origin: medial orbital margin and lacrimal sac
Insertion: lateral palpebral raphe
Action: closes eyelids, aids passage and drainage of tears
Nerve: temporal and zygomatic branches of facial nerve VII
Is there a muscle that pulls the lower lid up?
NO
Zygomaticus major
from zygomatic process
pulls mouth back and up
Origin: anterior surface of zygomatic bone
Insertion: modiolus at angle of mouth
Action: elevates and draws angle of mouth laterally
Nerve: buccal branch of facial nerve VII
buccinator
deep muscle
insert into upper and lower lip
into “modailis”
chewing muscle
Origin: External alveolar margins of maxilla and mandible by molar teeth, to maxillary tubercle and pterygoid hamulus and posterior mylohyoid line respectively, then via pterygomandibular raphe between bones
Insertion: decussates at modiolus of mouth and intedigitates with opposite side
Action: aids mastiction, tenses cheeks in blowing and whistling, aids closure of mouth
Nerve: buccal branch of facial nerve VII
What pierces the buccinator?
parotid duct
What does sensory innervation for the face?
Trigeminal nerve CN V
3 divisions with branches
Where does facial nerve CN V7 exit skull?
stylomastoid foramen
Orbicularis oris
Origin: Near midline on anterior surface of maxilla and mandible and modiolus at angle of mouth
Insertion: mucous membrane of margin of kips and raohe with buccinator at modiolus
Action: narrows orifice of mouth, purses lips and puckers lip edges
Nerve: accessory parts are incisivus labii superioris and inferioris
What are the 5 major branches of the facial nerve?
Temporal (ten) zygomatic (zebras) buccal (bashed) marginal/mandibular (my) cervical (car)- platysma
What happens if the facial nerve is damaged?
Bell’s palsy
if need to remove parotid gland or inflammation near stylomastoid foramen
flaccid muscles so smooth
What happens if the facial nerve is damaged?
Bell’s palsy
if need to remove parotid gland or inflammation near stylomastoid foramen
flaccid muscles so smooth
What are the 3 divisions of the trigeminal nerve?
- ophthalmic
- maxillary
- mandibular
What is the difference between buccal facial and buccal trigeminal?
Facial- motor only
trigeminal- sensory only
What does auriculo temporal run with?
superficial temporal artery
What exit points line up?
supraorbital
infraorbital
mental
Where does the ophthalmic division V1 go?
purely sensory
passes through the cavernous sinus
exit through superior orbital fissure
What are the terminal branches of V1?
LaSSIE
Lacrimal- structures superior to the lateral canthus of the eyes
Supraorbital- superior to the orbit
supratrochlear- superior to the medial canthus of the eye
infratrochlear- the region of the medial canthus
external nasal- anterior and lateral aspect of the external nose
Where does maxillary division of V2 go?
Purely sensory
passes through cavernous sinus
leaves skull through foramen rotundum
What are the branches of maxillary division?
Zygomaticotemporal- lateral and superior to orbit
Zygomaticofacial- lateral and inferior to the orbit
Infraorbital- large nerve inferior to the orbit
Alveolar nerves (posterior superior, middle superior, anterior superior)
Where does the mandibular V3 branch go?
Sensory AND motor
leaves skull through formen ovale
enter infratemporal fossa
divides into anterior and posterior divisions
What are the divisions of mandibular V3?
posterior- 1ry sensory
auriculotemporal- anterior to ear and superiorly into temporal region (carries parasympathetic secetomotor fibers)
lingual- oral cavity
inferior alveolar/mental- teeth and upper lip
Anterior= 1ry motor
buccal- sensory to cheek and oral mucosa
What is the parotid gland?
large superficially located salivary gland
secretes serous fluid via the parotid duct
What is the parotid duct?
stensons duct
pierces the buccinator muscle
enters the oral cavity adjacent to the upper 2nd molar
What innervates the parotid gland?
parasympathetic GLOAP
glossopharyngeal nerve IX- travels in lesser petrosal nerve- synapses in otic ganglion (exiting foramen ovale)- travel in auriculotemporal nerve- to innervate parotid gland
What is the main arterial supply for the face?
superficial tempral and facial
both are branches of external carotid
What is the arterial supply for the area above the orbits?
supraorbital and supratrochlear
branches of the ophthalmic a
originates from internal carotid
What supplies te posterior area of the skull?
branches of the external carotid a, occipital, and posterior auricular
