Face And Scalp Flashcards
Bony framework of the face
. Frontal bone
. Viscerocranium (vomer, lacrimals, nasals, maxillae, inf. Nasal conchae, zygomatics, palatines)
. Mandible
Forehead
. Extends from the hair margin to the eyebrows
Glabella
. Area btw the eyebrows
. Characterized by vertical creases
Orbital region
. Bounded by the bony rim of the orbit
. Supraorbital region: upper edge, contains notches/foramina for transmission of supraorbital and supratrochlear nn. And vessels
. Eyelids: sup. And inf. Palpebrae that protect eyeball
. Sup. Lid larger and more mobile
. Palpebral fissur: slit btw eyelids
. Med. and lat. canthi: med. and lat. angles of the eyelids
Cheek
Anterolat. Aspect of face inf. To orbits and zygomatic arches
External nose
. Dorsum of nose: runs btw root and apex
. External nares: openings to nasal cavities, separated by septum
. Alae: flared nostril margins
. Composed of nasal bones and nasal cartilages (septal, lat. and alar)
Oral region
. Vermillion: red zone surrounding mouth
. Philtrum: shallow vertical groove running form nasal septum to upper lip
. Lips: competent if lightly closed at rest
Temporal region
. Lat. aspect of face
. Posterolateral to orbits and sup. To zygomatic arch
. Superficial temporal vessels may be visible under skin
Innervation of muscles of fascial expression
. Parotid plexus branches of facial n. Proper (CN VII)
Insertion of facial expression mm.
Skin
Orbicularis oculi orbital part OA
O: orbital margin and med. palpebral ligament
A: forceful closure of eyes
Orbicularis oculi palpebral part OA
O: med. palpebral ligament through both lids to insert on lat. palpebral raphe
A: gentle closure of eyelids (winking, blinking)
Orbicularis oculi lacrimal part OA
O: post. To med. palpebral ligament and lacrimal sac
A: draws eyelids and lacrimal sac med. to aid in tear collection
Levator labii superioris OIA
O: maxilla near inf. Margin of orbit, deep to orbicularis oculi
I: courses inf. To insert on the lat. half of upper lip
A: elevates upper lip
Zygomaticus minor OIA
O: zygomatic bone med. and ant. To zygomaticus major
I: courses obliquely to insert onto lat. part of the upper lip
A: elevates upper lip
Zygomaticus major OIA
O: zygomatic bone
I: courses obliquely to insert on the corner of mouth
A: pulls the mouth upwards and outwards (smiling and laughing)
Levator anguli oris OIA
O: maxilla deep to levator labii superioris
I: corner of mouth
A: elevates the corner of mouth
Risorius OIA
O: parotid fascia and buccal skin
I: corner of mouth
A: widens mouth
Depressor anguli oris OIA
O: ant. Mandible
I: upward to insert on angle of mouth
A: depresses corner of mouth (frowning)
Depressor labii inferioris
O: Ant. Mandible
I: passes med. to insert onto the lower lip, most med. fibers may cross over one another at midline
A: depresses lower lip and draws it lat.
Mentalis OIA
O: incisive fossa on the mandible
I: onto skin of chin
A: raises and protrudes Lowe lip
Orbicularis oris
. Circular muscle w/in upper and lower lips
. Formed from interlacing fibers of oral group mm. Plus buccinator m. And fibers w/in lips
. Oral sphincter
. Closes mouth and contributes to pursing and protrusion of lips
Buccinator OIA
O: pterygomandibular raphe, maxilla, and mandible
I: pass ant. To mouth, some cross cross and form substance on cheek
A: mastication by compressing cheek to keep food in molars, involved in cheek expansion (whistling)
Buccal fat pad
. Pierced by parotid duct
. Lies sup., to muscle
. Prominent in infants to aid in suckling
Auricular muscles
. Radiate around the ears
. Mostly rudimentary, moves auricles in some
Platysma OIA
O: superficial fascia of skin of thorax
I: courses upwards through neck to insert onto lower part of face
A: wrinkles skin over neck and face, may also be active in deep inspiration
Occipitofrontalis
Frontalis m. And occipitalis m. Bellies are united by epicranial
Frontalis portion of occipitofrontalis OIA
O: epicranial aponeurosis
I: skin of forehead
A: wrinkles skin of forehead, raises the eyebrows
Occipitalis portion of occipitalis OIA
O: occipital bone
I: epicranial aponeurosis
A: pulls scalp post., wrinkles skin over post. Aspect of cranium
Muscles of mastication motor innervation
. Branches of mandibular division of trigeminal n (CNV3)
