25
Q

Describe the location of the parotid gland

A

Superficial to muscles

26
Q

Where does the parotid duct leave the parotid gland and where does it go to?

A

the parotid duct leaves the gland at the anterior edge, passing towards the corner of the mouth but turning deep through the buccinator

27
Q

Where does the parotid duct open?

A

The parotid duct opens into the oral cavity at the upper second molar tooth

Lateral pterygoid

30
Q

What does the temporalis do?

A

elevation and retraction

31
Q

what does the masseter do?

A

Elevation- from angle of jaw to the zygomatic arch, and responsible for closing jaw

32
Q

What does the medial pterygoid do?

A

Elevation, side to side movements

33
Q

What does the lateral pterygoid do?

A

Protrusion and depression

34
Q

Where is the nerve supply for the muscles of mastication from?

A

The motor branch of V3

35
Q

What type of innervation does cranial nerve 5 supply?

A

general sensory and somatic motor to derivatives of the 1st pharyngeal arch

36
Q

43
Q

Describe the path that the maxillary nerve (V2) takes

A

Enters the pterygopalatine fossa, gives off branches to the pteryggopalatine ganglion, then through the inferior orbital fissure
