L15 - Face & Neck Musculature Flashcards
Rule of thumb for superifical (subcutaneous) muscles origins and inderstions
- origins: facial bones or adjacent muscles
- insertions: skin
Muscles of matication function
movement of mandible
How many key muscles of mastication are there?
- temporalis
- masseter
- medial pterygoid
- lateral pterygoid
temporalis: origin
temporal bone
temporalis: insertion
coronoid process of mandible
temporalis: action
elevate ansd retratc madible
temporalis: innervation
CN V3 (deep temporal)
temporalis: blood supply
maxillary artery
temporalis: venous drainage
deep temporal vein
masseter: origin
zygomatic arch
masseter: insertion
coronoid process and ramus of mandible
masseter: action
elevate mandible and approximate teeth
masseter: innervation
CN V3 (masseteric)
masseter: blood supply
