occipitofrontalis (epicranius) -> frontal belly
frontal belly -
action: raises the eyebrow
insertion: skin
Origin: fascia or bone of the face
occipitofrontalis (epicranius) -> occipital belly
action - fixes aponeuroses and pulls the scalp posteriorly
the origin and insertion of all muscles of facial expression
origin - fascia or bone of the face
insertion - skin
epicranial aponeurosis
a sheet-like connective tissue connecting the two bellies
corrugator supercilii
Action - draws the eyebrows medially and inferiorly
- is located above the eyelid, works on moving the eyebrow
- angry or furrowing, worry
orbicularis oculi
action - closes the eye
- is located above the eye, and below the eyelid (squinting)
- orbits around the eye
zygomaticus (major and minor)
action - raises the lateral corners of the mouth (smiling)
major - superior
minor - inferior
risorius
action - draws the corner of the lips laterally
- is lateral under the zygomaticus major and minor (almost where ramus is)
- located inferior to the zygomaticus minor and major
- the smirking muscle
levator labii superioris
action - raises and furrows the upper lip
- is between the zygomaticus minor and the orbicularis oculi the upper cheek bone directly lateral to the nose and superior to the eye
- snarling
depressor labii inferioris
action - raises and furrows the lips
- depresses the lower lip. is directly lateral to the mentalis
depressor anguli oris
action - draws the lower lip inferiorly
- is at the angle of the mouth (dimples)
orbicularis oris
action - closes the lips (kissing)
- the moustache/beard area right around the mouth
- orbits or surrounds the mouth
mentalis
action - wrinkles the chin, protrudes the lower lip (pouting)
- where the mental protuberance is
- pouty face
buccinator
action - compresses the cheek (whistling, sucking, holding food between the teeth)
- between the risorius and the zygomaticus major
platysma
action - tenses the skin of the neck, helps depress the mandible and pulls the lower lip back and down.
- almost below the chin; it runs from the chin down and across the collarbone
muscles of mastication
chewing
masseter
origin - zygomatic arch and inferior zygomatic bone
insertion - angle and ramus of mandible
action - elevates the mandible (primary mover of the jaw)
- in the cheekbone
temporalis
origin - temporal fossa (lateral depression of parietal, temporal, frontal, and sphenoid)
insertion - coronoid process of mandible
action - elevates and retracts the mandible
- fan shape located on the temporal bone, you feel it move when you clench your jaw. acts as the synergist
medial and lateral pterygoid muscles
action - side to side movement of the mandible
muscles of tongue movement
genioglossus
hyoglossus
styloglossus
genioglossus
origin - internal mandible
insertion - inferior tongue and hyoid bone
action - protracts the tongue (allows us to stick out our tongue)
- middle front of the tongue
hyoglossus
origin - the hyoid bone
insertion - inferior tongue
action - depresses and retracts the tongue
- the back middle of the tongue
styloglossus
origin - styloid process of temporal bone
insertion - inferior tongue
action - retracts and elevates the tongue
- upper muscle right below by styloid process
action of the suprahyoid muscles
to elevate the hyoid when they contract
digastric
origin - mandible and mastoid process of temporal bone
insertion - the hyoid bone
- consists of two bellies which are united by intermediate tendons, that form a v shape under the chin
action - jaw opening, swallowing, head extension
stylohyoid
origin - the styloid process of the temporal bone
insertion - the hyoid bone
- a slender muscle below the angle of the jaw; parallel to posterior belly of digastric
action - can help protract the hyoid as well as elevate it
mylohyoid
origin - mylohyoid line of mandible
insertion - hyoid bone
- a flat, triangular muscle just deep to the digastric muscle; this muscle pair makes a sling that forms the floor of the anterior mouth
action - depressing mandible, elevate hyoid, elevate oral cavity
action of the infrahyoid muscles
to depress the hyoid
sternohyoid
origin - manubrium and clavicle
insertion - hyoid
attachment - sternum
- the most medial muscle of the neck, thin; superficial except inferiorly where it is covered by the sternocleidomastoid
action - depress the hyoid helping with swallowing and speech
omohyoid
origin - superior scapula
insertion - hyoid
- a straplike muscle with two bellies united by an intermediate tendon; lateral to the sternohyoid
action - depressing the hyoid, protection
thyrohyoid
origin - manubrium of the sternum
insertion - hyoid
attaches - thyroid
- appears as a superior continuation of the sternothyroid muscle
action - depress and fixate the hyoid bone, elevate the larynx
sternothyroid
origin - manubrium of the sternum
insertion - thyroid cartilage
- a muscle that is lateral and deep to the sternohyoid
