Kines: TMJ, Respiration, Posture, Anthropometric Test Flashcards
What makes up the TMJ
Left and right temporal bones
mandible: only moving bone of the skull
hyoid: ligament and muscle attachment
sphenoid: ligament and muscle attachment
maxilla: upper jaw; muscle attachment
articular disk:
divides each joint into upper and lower joints
attached firmly to mandibular condyle
upper joint: (TMJ)
convex articular eminence of temporal bone
concave superior surface of disk
gliding joint (amphiarthrodial)
lower joint: TMJ
superior/anterior convex articular surface of mandibular condyle
concave inferior surface of the disk
hinge joint (diarthrodial)
functionally: (TMJ)
hinge with a movable socket
motion in all 3 planes
one capsule
articular surfaces (TMJ)
no hyaline cartilage
covered with fibrocartilage with more potential for self-repair
disk is vascular around the edges, avascular in the center
capsule (TMJ)
thin and loose above the disk
thick and strong laterally
encloses the entire mandibular condyle
Open packed (TMJ)
mouth slightly open
Closed pack (TMJ)
Teeth clenched
rest position (TMJ)
rest position–1.5 to 5.0 mm between teeth
TMJ Sagittal plane:
mandibular depression (mouth opening) * measured in mm between central incisors
mandibular elevation (mouth closing) * closed is closed; not measured
TMJ Frontal plane:
lateral deviation–movement of jaw laterally
*10 mm each way is normal
TMJ Transverse plane:
protrusion (jaw forward)
retrusion (jaw backward)
*can be measured
Mandibular elevation prime movers:
masseters
temporalis
medial pterygoids
Lateral deviation prime movers:
Prime: right lateral & medial pterygoids
left masseter and left temporalis
- to R, it’s left lateral and medial pterygoids, right masseter & temporalis
Protrusion/protraction prime movers:
All lateral and medial pterygoids
Retrusion/Retraction prime movers:
Prime:
Temporalis (posterior)
Tongue Motions/Prime Movers (extrinsic muscles)
(CN XII, hypoglossal nerve)
Costovertebral joints:
synovial; nonaxial, amphiarthrodial, gliding joints
Sternocostal joints:
cartilaginous; nonaxial, amphiarthrodial joints
Elevation of the rib cage
rib cage as a whole moves superior and lateral (up and out)
sternum moves anterior
dimensions of thorax increase (along with vertical increase)
creates negative pressure, drawing air in
Depression of the rib cage
rib cage moves down and in, back to rest position
sternum returns to resting position
dimensions of thorax decrease
pressure increases in thorax, pushing air out.
Quiet inspiration:
diaphragm (phrenic nerve, C3, C4, C5 [mostly C4]) external intercostals (T1-T11 intercostal nerves)
Deep inspiration:
more forceful action of diaphragm and external intercostals
accessory muscles: SCM, pec major, all scalenes, levator costarum, serratus posterior superior
Forced inspiration:
even more forceful action of diaphragm and external intercostals
more forceful work of accessory muscles of deep inspiration, plus, levator scapulae, upper traps, rhomboids, pec min
Quiet expiration
mostly passive; external intercostals relax, gravity pulls ribcage down, recoil of thoracic wall and lung tissue
essentially no muscle activity
