Q

Articular Disc (meniscus)

A

made of dense fibrous tissue which divides the interior joint into sup. (gliding) and inf. compartments (hinge motion); peripheri is thicker and attaches to capsule

21
Q

retrodiscal ligament composition (of articular disc)

A

more elastic fibers; more flexible

22
Q

Temporomandibular (lateral) ligament

A

covers the capsular ligament; runs from zygomatic process of temporal bone to neck of mandibular condyle; prevents posterior displacement and excess lateral displacement of condyle

23
Q

Sphenomandibular joint

A

runs from the spine of the sphenoid to the lingula of the mandible; becomes taught during excessive opening

24
Q

becomes taut during excessive opening

A

sphenomandibular

25
Q

prevents post. displacement and excess lateral displacement of condyle

A

temporomandibular ligament (lateral)

26
Q

Stylomandibular ligament

A

runs from styloid process of temporal to the angle of the mandible; becomes taut in excessive protrusion

27
Q

taut in protrusion

A

stylomandibular ligament

28
Q

Nerve innervation of the TMJ

A

mandibular branch of the trigeminal (V3 of CN5); auriculotemporal (most branches), masseteric (branches to small ant. portion), deep temporal (branches to small ant. portion)

29
Q

gives of branches to most of the joint

A

auriculotemporal

30
Q

innervates the small ant. portion of the TMJ

A

the masseteric and deep temporal parts of the mandibular branch (V3) of the trigeminal (CN5)

31
Q

Proprioceptive

A

sense of space (jaw open to long)

32
Q

Pain Receptors

A

free nerve endings (overextension)

33
Q

Blood Supply to TMJ

A

Superficial temporal art (post capsule) which is terminal branch of ext. carotid art. and maxillary artery (deeper into mandibular space) which is a terminal branch of ext. carotid artery

34
Q

Where blood supply of TMJ branches from

A

External carotid artery

35
Q

supplies post. capsule of TMJ

A

superficial temporal artery

36
Q

Supplies the deep portion into the mandibular space of TMJ with blood

A

Maxillary artery

37
Q

Motion of TMJ

A

combination of hinge and gliding

38
Q

Protrusion

A

condyles move forward; discs glide down articular eminence

39
Q

Retrusion

A

condyles move back, discs glide up the eminence

40
Q

Depression

A

condyles rotate anteriorly around a horizontal axis, articular disc glides down,the articular eminence; when opening wide both protrusion and depression happen

41
Q

condyles rotate anteriorly around a horizontal axis, articular disc glides down,the articular eminence

A

depression

42
Q

elevation

A

discs glide back up the articular eminence and the condyles rotate posteriorly around a horizontal axis

43
Q

lateral deviation to right

A

aka excursions; to the right –> disc on left slides down eminence and the right condyle rotates slightly anteriorly

44
Q

lateral deviation to left

A

disc on right side slides down eminence and the left condyle rotates slightly anteriorly

45
Q

muscles for protrusion

A

lateral pterygoids

46
Q

muscle for retrusion

A

post/horizontal fibers of temporalis, deep fibers of massetter

47
Q

depression

A

suprahyoids, infrahyoids, and lateral pterygoids in wide opening (involves protrusion)

48
Q

elevation

A

massetter, temporalis, medial pterygoid

49
Q

lateral deviation

A

opposite lateral pterygoid

50
Q

disorders of function (and how common)

A

fractures of the mandible:
-30% at neck, at neck of condyle -25% at angle
-22% at chin
Subluxation (partial dislocation) and dislocation
