muscles Flashcards
masseter origin
zygomatic arch
(inferior and emdial
masseter insertion
lateral surface of rami and angle of mandible
masseter action/movement
elevates mandible, closes teeth together with force
temporalis origin
temporal fossae
temporalis insertion
coronoid process, anteror border of ramus, and temporal crest
temporalis action
anterior(vertical) - elevate/close and position mandible
posterior (more horizontal)- retrude/pull back and position mandible
medial pterygoid origin
pterygoid fossa on spenoid and tuberosity
medial pterygoid insertion
medial angle on mandible
medial pterygoid action
elevate/close mandible
lateral pterygoid origin
lateral pterygoid plate of sphenoid and greater wing and infratemporal of sphenoid
lateral pterygoid insertion
pterygoid fovea on neck of condyle and anterior part of articular disc and capsuleon mandible
lateral pterygoid action
both - protrude and depress/open mandible
one - lateral toward one side (left lateral pterygoid muscle moves mandible to the right)
infrahyoid group
attaches from hyoid bone down to the sternum or clavicle
suprahyoid group
attaches at hyoid bone up to the mandible
infra and suprahyoid groups together action
retrude and depress mandible
cheek muscle
buccinator
surrounds the lips as the pucker muscle; not attached to the skull
orbicularis oris
smile muscles
levator labii superioris and levator anguli oris
frown muscles
depressor labii inferioris and depressor anguli oris
muscle in chin, if tense can make access to lower teeth a challenge
mentalis
a thin muscle that covers front of the neck just under the skin
platysma
from mastoid process to sternum and clavicle
sternocleidomnastoid muscle
sphenomandibular ligament attachments
spine of sphenoid to lingula
stylomandibular ligament attachments
styloid process of temporal bone to angle and posterior border of the angle of the mandible
capsular ligament attachments
articular fossa/eminence to neck of condyloid process
lateral ligament attachments
from zygomatic arch and is directed obliquely down and posterior to the lateral and posterior neck of condyle
geniohyoid, mylohyoid, digastric
suprahyoids
omohyoid and sternohyoid
infrahyoids
elevation muscles
massesters, medial pterygoids, anterior temporalis
depression muscles
supra/infrahyoids together and both lateral pterygoids
retrusion muscles
posterior portion of temporalis,suprahyoids
protrusion muscles
both lateral pterygoid
lateral excursion
one of the lateral pterygoids
innervation of muscles of mastication
trigeminal nerve (CN V) divison 3 mandibular branch
innervation of muscles of facial expression
facial nerve (CN VII)
