Q

Buccinator

A

Laterally -alveolar processes of maxillae and mandible to pterygomandibular raphe (thickening of buccopharyngeal fascia)
-blend w/ orbiculares oris

deeper/more medial, deep to mandible so it’s more closely related to buccal mucosa than skin of face

  • buccal branch of facial n
  • Keeps cheek taut, prevents it from folding/being injured during chewing
  • Helps cheeks resist forces generated by whistling and sucking

Q

Platysma

A

Subcutaneous tissue of neck

Attachments:

  • subcutaneous tissue of supra- and infraclavicular regions
  • Base of mandible, skin of cheek, angle of mouth and orbicularis oris

ACTION:
-superior attachment: tenses skin, producing vertical skin ridges
INFERIOR: helps depress mandible and draw corners of mouth inferiorly, as in a grimace

Q

Levator anguli oris

A

canine fossa of maxilla immediately inferior to infraorbital foramen
-Inserts into angle of mouth, blends with fibers of orbicularis oris
Action: lifts angles of mouth
Innervation: buccal branch of facial n

17
Q

Depressor angluli oris

A

Triangular muscle, originates from external oblique line of mandible
- Ascending fibers converge at apex to insert into angle of mouth from below and blend w/ fibers of orbicularis oris
Action: pulls angles of mouth downward
Innervation: marg and branch of facial n

18
Q

Zygomaticus major

A

Arises from LATERAL aspect of zygomatic bone
Downward/medial to insert into angle of mouth and blend with orbicularis oris
Action: draws angle of mouth upward and backward
Buccal branch of facial n (and some fibers from zygomatic branch)

19
Q

Zygomatic minor

A

Anterior aspect of zygomatic bone
Downward and medial to insert into skin of upper lip

action: elevation of upper lip
buccal branch of facial n

20
Q

Risorius

A

Arises from parotid and masseteric fascia, and buccal skin
- inserts transversely into angle of mouth
ACTION: retracts angle of mouth posteriorly
Innervation: mandibular and/or buccal branch of facial n (highly variable)

21
Q

Levator labii superioris

A

Originates from inferior orbital margin
Inserts into upper lip

Action: raise upper lip
Innervation: buccal branch of facial n

22
Q

Depressor labii inferioris

A

Arises from lowest portion of oblique line of mandible
Inserts into skin of lower lip
Action: depresses lower lip
Innervation: marginal mandibular branch of facial n

23
Q

Orbicularis oculi

A

Originates from medial orbital margin and lacrimal bone
Inserts into skin around orbit

2 parts: palpebral (blinking), orbital (forceful closing)

Innervation: temporal and zygomatic branches of facial n

24
Q

Corrugator supercilli

A

-Medial end of superciliary arch (ridge superior to supraorbital margin)
-Skin overlying superciliary arch and supraorbital margin
Action: draws eyebrows medially and inferiorly
Innervation: temporal branch of facial n

25
Q

Mentalis

A 
Attachments:
-body of mandible anterior to roots of inferior incisors 
-skin of chin
Action:
-elevates/protrudes lower lip
Innervation:
-marg mand branch of facial n
26
Q

Clin app: Class II bites

A

smal mandible cf to maxilla, mentalis = hyperactive when lips closed. dimpling of chin = hyperactive mentalist muscles

27
Q

Levvator labi superioris alaeque nasi and alar part of nasalis

A

Attachments:

  • Frontal processes of maxilla
  • Alar cartilage

Action:
-Depresses ala laterally (dilates nasal aperture)

Inn: buccal branch of facial nw

28
Q

Clinical correlation

A

True nasal breathers flare nostrils distinctly
Habitual mouth breathing, caused by chronic nasal obstruction diminishes/eliminates ability to flare nostrils
- Children who are chronic mouth breathers dev improper bite because alignment of teeth maintained by normal pds of occlusions and labial closure

29
Q

Parotid gland

A

Enclosed within tough fascial capsule, PAROTID SHEATH, derived from investing layer of deep cervical fascia

  • Irregular shape because area occupied by gland, parotid bed, anteroinferior to EAM, where it’s wedged between ramus of mandible and mastoid process
  • Fatty tissue between lobes of gland = flexibility for motion of mandible
  • Apex of parotid gland posterior to angle of mandible, and its base related to zygomatic arch
30
Q

Parotid duct

A

Passes horizontally from anterior edge of gland and at anterior border of masseter, duct turns medially, pierces buccinator and enters oral cavity through small orifice opposite 2nd maxillary molar

Embedded within gland (superficial to deep):

  1. Parotid plexus of facial n (CN7) + branches
  2. Retromandibular vein
  3. ECA

On parotid sheath and within gland = parotid lymph nodes

31
Q

Parotid plexus

A

Temperofacial and cervicofacial trunks of facial n give rise to parotid plexus

  • Variations exist but 5 terminal branches emerge as follows:
  • Temperofacial trunk: gives rise to temporal, zygomatic and buccal branches
  • Cervicofacial trunk: buccal, mandibular and cervical branches
