Q

when does the stylohyoid muscle split?

A

prior to insertion on the hyoid bone, (a.k.a the stylohoid sling) it allows the hyoid bone to slide via the intermediate tendon of the digastric muscle

26
Q

Dr. Hall refers the Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) as a ________ joint?

A

true

27
Q

How many compartments does the TMJ have?

A
  1. inferior - allows rotation
  2. superior - allows gliding
28
Q

what separates the TMJ compartments and allows for the movement actions

A
29
Q

Each TMJ compartment accounts for what % of mouth opening

A

50 % each

29
Q
A
30
Q

what type of action allows the jaw to slightly open

A

hinge action (rotation)

31
Q

what type of action allows the jaw to open widely

A

combination of hinge and gliding action

32
Q

where is the point of rotation with TMJ

A

axis of condylar process

33
Q

which part of the TMJ glides

A

condylar process

34
Q

what is normal distance for mouth opening

A

4 - 5 cm

With full range of motion, the patient should have 4-5 cm between his/her central incisors

35
Q

What technique might be used if you are having trouble scissoring a patient’s mouth open after relaxation?

A

use thumb (at central incisor) & index finger (base of mandible) to pull/glide the mandible forward. then open by rotation (hinge action)

36
Q

What preop evaluation allows us to test the limitation (if any) of the TMJ

A
  1. having the patient open his or her mouth
  2. asking the patinet to protrude their jaw
