Lectures 27-28 Flashcards
Masseter origin/insertion
O: zygomatic arch
I: lateral surface of ramus, angle, and body of mandible
strongest muscle in the body
masseter
innervation of mastication (chewing muscles)
motor portion of mandibular division (V3) of trigeminal nerve (CN 5)
temporalis origin/insertion
O: temporalis fossa of temporal bone
I: coronoid process of mandible
medial pterygoid origin/insertion
O: between medial and lateral pterygoid plates
I: medial surface of ramus, angle, and body of mandible
lateral pterygoid origin/insertion
O: lateral pterygoid plate
I: anterior neck of mandibular condyle
2 things that always occur when the jaw is opened
- condyle is placed anteriorly (jaw partially dislocates)
2. mandible is depressed
elevation of the mandible is mostly accomplished by the
masseter and medial pterygoid
the masseter and medial pterygoid form the ___, which suspends the mandible
mandibular sling
the lateral pterygoid causes the mandible to
protrude
suprahyoid group
mylohyoid, anterior belly of digastric, geniohyoid
ligaments of the TMJ
articular capsule, articular disk, temporomandibular ligament, stylomandibular ligament, sphenomandibular ligament
supplies sensation to the lower teeth and aveolar surface of the mandible, the chin
mandibular division via its inferior alveolar branch
the inferior alveolar nerve enters through the ___ and exits through the ___
mandibular foramen, mental foramen
the area medial to the ramus of the mandible
infratemporal fossa
the pterygoid plexus communicate with the
inferior ophthalmic vein
the inferior ophthalmic vein drains into the
cavernous sinus
the cavernous sinus drains into the ___ via the ___
sigmoid sinus, greater and lesser petrosal sinuses
formed by clumps of bacteria from an infection on the side of the face
cavernous sinus thrombus
anterior boundary of infratemporal fossa
maxilla
superior boundary of infratemporal fossa
greater wing of sphenoid
medial boundary of infratemporal fossa
lateral pterygoid plate
lateral boundary of infratemporal fossa
ramus of mandible
posterior boundary of infratemporal fossa
spine of sphenoid
