18
Q

origin and insertion of temporalis?

A

origin: inferior temporal line and fascia
insertion: coronoid process

19
Q

action of temporalis?

A

jaw elevation and retrusion (posterior fibres)

20
Q

innervation of temporalis?

A

Vc motor root - deep temporal nerve

21
Q

origin and insertion of upper head lateral pterygoid?

A

origin: infratemporal surface of greater wing of sphenoid
insertion: capsule and articular disc of TMJ

22
Q

origin and insertion of lower head of lateral pterygoid?

A

origin: lateral aspect of lateral pterygoid plate
insertion: pterygoid fovea below head of condyle

23
Q

action of lateral pterygoid?

A

initial opening (hinge in lower joint space, suprahyoids only)

wide opening (anterior and inferior translation of condyle, assisted by inferior lateral pterygoids)

24
Q

innervation of lateral pterygoid?

A

Vc motor root - nerve to lateral pterygoid

25
Q

function of lower head of lateral pterygoid?

A

pulls condyle forward
bilateral protrusion and assisted opening
unilateral excursion

26
Q

function of super head of lateral pterygoid?

A

active during retrusion and closing

27
Q

origin and insertion of medial pteryoid?

A

origin: medial aspect of lateral pterygoid plate and maxillary tuberosity

insertion: medial aspect of ramus/ angle of mandible

28
Q

action of medial pterygoid?

A

jaw elevation
assists protrusion and lateral excursions (unilateral)

29
Q

innervation of medial pterygoid?

A

Vc motor root - nerve to medial pterygoid

30
Q

origin and insertion of geniohydoid?

A

origin: inferior mental spine and inferior genial tubercle

insertion: hyoid bone

31
Q

action of geniohyoid?

A

when hyoid fixed: jaw opening and retrusion
when hyoid not fixed: raise and forward hyoid

32
Q

innervation of geniohyoid?

A

C1 (with hypoglossal)

33
Q

where is the mylohyoid?

34
Q

action of mylohyoid?

A

when hyoid fixed: jaw opening
when hyoid not fixed: raise hyoid and FOM

35
Q

innervation of mylohyoid?

A

Vc motor root - nerve to mylohyoid (branch of IAN)

36
Q

origin and insertion of anterior belly of digastric?

A

origin: digastric fossa
insertion: intermediate tendon

37
Q

action of anterior belly of digastric?

A

hyoid fixed: jaw opening
hyoid not fixed: raises hyoid

38
Q

innervation of anterior belly of digastric?

A

Vc motor root - via nerve to mylohyoid (branch of IAN)

39
