closes the eyelids and is responsible for the spontaneous blink

20
Q

What is the function of the lacrimal orbicularis?

A

facilitates the drainage of tears

21
Q

What is the function of the orbital orbicularis?

A

closes the eyes tightly

22
Q

What is the most affected muscle in myasthenia gravis?

A

orbicularis oculi

23
Q

Where is the corrugator supercilii located?

A

medial end of the eyebrow just above the orbicularis oculi muscle

24
Q

The corrugator originates where?

A

superciliary arch and inserts deep into the skin of the eyebrow

25
Q

What is the function of the corrugator supercilli?

A

Responsible for drawing the eyebrow down medially

26
Q

What nerve is affected when you are constantly frowning?

A

supression of supratrochlear nerve

27
Q

What is the largest of the nasal groups?

A

nasalis transverse

28
Q

What are the three nasal groups?

A
  1. nasalis transverse

2.

29
Q

Which nerve is injected for botox?

A

supratrochlear nerve

30
Q

The nasalis transverse is composed of two parts. What are they?

A
  1. transverse part
31
Q

The transverse part of the nasalis arises from where?

A

the maxilla and attaches to aponeurosis across the dorsum of the nose

32
Q

What is the transverse part of the nasalis responsible for?

A

compressing the nostrils

33
Q

The alar part of the nasalis arises from where?

A

the maxilla and inserts into the great alar cartilage. The alar part flares the nostrils

34
Q

This is the most superior of the nasal group?

A

procerus

35
Q

Where does the procerus of the nasal group arise from?

A

arises from the fascia covering the lower part of the nasal bone and the upper part of the lateral nasal cartilage.

36
Q

Where is the procerus inserted?

A

in between the eyebrows

37
Q

What is the function of the procerus?

A

helps pull the skin between the eyebrows downward and aids in the flaring of the nostrils

38
Q

Where does the depressor nasi septi arise from?

A

incisive vasa of the maxilla

39
Q

Where is the nasi septi inserted?

A

into the nasal septum and part of the nasalis alar. compressor of the asar pulls the tip of the nose downward and compresses the aperture of the nostrils.

40
Q

Which part is cut by surgeons to help the droopy part of the nose?

A

depressor nasi septi

41
Q

Where does the buccinator originate?

A

maxilla and mandible

42
Q

The buccinator inserts where?
