A

Platysma

24
Q

Pathway of the parotid duct

A

Zygomatic arch -> ant edge og masseter -> turns medial - piercing the buccinator -> molar teeth = Oral vestibule

25

A

Origin of most muscles of facial expression

30
Q

What gland does the buccinator associate with?

A

Buccal salivary gland

32
Q

What does the buccinator do in regards to the salivary gland?

A

Discharging secretions into the mouth, glands scattered amoung fascicles of Buccinator

34
Q

What happens with a centrally located lesion of the facial n.?

A

Affected whole facial field
Loss of secretory activity by lacrimal gland and salivary
Mimetic muscular paralysis
Loss of taste sensation from anterior 2/3 of tongue

36
Q

A

Parotid

39
Q

What happens when there is a lesion in the buccal branch of the facial n.?

A

Paralysis of the muscles of the lips and cheeks
Deformation of the muzzle
