medial - latral pterygoid plate
anterior-infratemporal surface of maxilla
posterior - condylar process of mandible and styloid process of temporal bone
roof- inferior surface of greater wing of sphenoid bone
floor- level where medial pterygoid m attaches to the angle/ramus of mandible
What are the foraminae located in the infratemporal fossa? what emerges from them?
f. ovale- mandibular division of trigeminal n
f. spinosum - middle meningeal artery
mandibular n branches into what named nn
auriculotemporal inferior alveolar lingual buccal named muscular branches for each muscle of mastication
auriculotemporal n
sensor to around the ear. carries glossopharyngeal fibers to the parotid, production of saliva
sensory to the teeth of the mandible and skin overlying the chin and mandible
inferior alveolar n
somatosensation to the anterior 2/3 of the tongue
lingual n
a branch of the facial n. that joins lingual n to carry taste sensation from the ant 2/3 of the tongue
chorda tympani
sensation over the cheek

what is a terminal branch of the external carotid that is seen in the infratemporal fossa
maxillary a
what are the branches of the maxillary a (described with respect to their position to the lateral pterygoid m)
middle meningeal a
inferior alveolar a.
Where does the pterygopalatine fossa lie?
between sphenoid bond posteriorly and maxilla anteriorly
What foramina does the pterygopalatine fossa contain
f rotundum
inferior orbital fissure
What nerves does the pterygopalatine fossa contain
maxillary division of (V2) branches into infraorbital n. carrying sensation from the skin overlying the maxillary and zygomatic regions
What vessels does the pterygopalatine fossa containe?
maxillary artery branches
infraorbital a.
What kind of joint is the temporomandibular jt
modified synovial hinge jt.
What articulates at the tmj
head of condyle of the mandible and the mandibular fossa with the articular tubercle
there is a articular disc within the joint that is fused with the articular capusle
what is the strong ligament of the tmj capsule
the articular capsule is thickened laterally as the lateral temporomandibular ligament
Which other two ligaments support the connection of the mandible to the base of the skull
stylomandibular
sphenomandibular
what movements occur at the tmj
rotation during initial part of jaw opening, the head of the mandible rotates with the articular disc toward the articular tubercle
Where do the muscles of facial expression insert
skin or fascia underlying skin
innervation of facial expression muscles
facial n CN VII
