what is orbicularis oris?
muscle that encircles mouth, fibres of upper and lower lips, horizontal fibres attach to lip and interdigitate to form circle closes mouth, pucker, attachment for other facial muscles, innervated by CN VII facial not a facial muscles, everything orientated to orbicularis oris
what are the transverse facial muscles?
buccinator, risorius
what are the angular facial muscles?
levator labii superior alaeque nas levator labii superiori depressor labii inferiori zygomaticus major zygomaticus minor
what are the vertical facial muscles?
levator anguli oris depressor anguli oris metalus muscle
what is the buccinator?
forms the cheek muscles
deep muscle, deep to risorius and masseter
origin: pterygomandibular ligament and alveolar process of mandible and maxilla
insertion: modiolus and orbicularis oris
maintains food between teeth, allows forced airflow for βthβ, pulls lips laterally
innervated by CN VII facial
what is the risorius?
overlies buccinator
origin: connective tissue over parotid gland and masseter
insert: modiolus
pulls lips laterally
innervated by CN VII facial
What is zygomaticus major?
lateral to zygomaticus minor
origin: zygomatic bone
insert: modiolus and orbicularis oris
pulls lips laterally and superiorly (amile)
inervated by CN VII facial
what are the primary movers for retraction of the lips?
zygomaticus major, buccinator, risorius
what is zygomaticus minor?
medial to zygomaticus major and lateral to levator labii superioris
origin: zygomatic bone
insrtion: orbicularis oris (upper lip)
pulls upper lip superiorly
innervated by CN VII facial
what is depressor labii inferioris?
origin: inferior mendible (external oblique line)
insertion: orbicularis oris (lower lip)
pulls lower lip inferiorly
innervated by CN VII facial
What is levator labii superioris?
lateral to the levator labii superioris aleque nasi
origin: maxilla (frontal process)
insertion: orbicularis oris (upper lip)
pulls upper lip superiorly
innervated by CN VII facial
what is Levator labii superioris alaeque nasi?
medial to leavtor labii superioris
origin: maxilla forntal process
insert: lateral margin of nose
pulls upper lip superiorly
innervated by cn vii facial

zygomaticus minor, depressor labii inferioris, levator labii superioris, levator labii superioris alaeque nasi
what is the primary mover for closure of the lips?
orbicularis oris
what is levator anguli oris?
lateral to levator labii superioris alaeque nasi
origin: maxilla (canine fossa)
insert: modiolus and orbicularis oris
elevated the angle of the mouth
