oral and pharyngeal musculature Flashcards
what are the structures you can see in the back of the mouth when it is open?
palatoglossal arch (most anterior) palatine tonsil(middle) palatopharyngeal arch (posterior ) frenulum
what nerve innervates the muscle of the lips and what is the muscle called?
CN VII Facial nerve
orbicularis oris muslce
what are the attachment points of the milohyoid muscle and what nerve innervates it and a motion of the muscle?
mylohyoid line of the mandible to the body of the hyoid bone
innervation is the CN V3
motion: elevates the floor of the mouth and hyoid bone
what are the attachment points of the geniohyoid muscle and what nerve innervates it?
attaches at the inferior mental spine of the mandible to the lesser horn of hyoid bone
CN XII hypoglossal or C1(ansa cervicalis) innervates it
motion: depresses mandible and elevates hyoid bone
what are the attachment points of the stylohyoid muscle and what nerve innervates it and name one motion?
attachment: styloid process of the temporal bone to the lesser horn of hyoid bone
innervation: CN VII facial
motion: pulls hyoid bone posteriorly and superiorly during swallowing
what are the attachments points of the hyoglossus muscle and what nerve innervates it and name one motion
attachment: body and greater horn of hyoid to the lateral side of the tongue between the styloglossus and inferior longitudinal muscle of tongue
innervation: CN XII
motion: depresses the tongue
what are the attachment points of the styloglossus muscle and what nerve innervates it and name one motion?
attachement: styloid process of temporal bone and stylomandibular ligament to the dorsal lateral tongue and mixes with inferior longitudinal muscle
innervation: CN XII
motion: elevates and retracts the tongue
what are the attachment points of the palatoglossus muscle and what nerve innervates it and name a motion
attachment: palatine aponeurosis to the lateral tongue to dorsum and fibers of the transverse muscle
innervation: CN X
motion: elevates root of the tongue
what are the attachment points of the genioglossus and what nerve innervates it and name a motion
attachment: superior genial spine to the hyoid body and to the bottom of the tongue
innervation CN XII
motion: protrudes the tongue
intrinsic muscles of tongue
superior longitudinal muscle fiber direction motion and nerve innervation
fibers run anteriolaterally from the epiglottis and medial lingual septum
innervation: CN XII
motion: shortens tongue, makes dorsum concave
intrinsic muscles of tongue
inferior longitudinal muscle fiber direction, motion, and nerve innervation
fibers run anteriorly form the root to the apex of the tongue
innervation: CN XII
motion: shortens tongue, makes tongue convex
intrinsic muscles of tongue
transverse muscle fiber direction, motion and nerve innervation
fiber run laterally from the lingual septum to the lateral tongue
innervation: CN XII
motion: narrows tongue, elongates tongue
intrinsic muscles of tongue
vertical muscle fiber direction, motion, and nerve innervation
fibers run inferiorly from the dorsum of the tongue to its ventral surface(top to bottom)
innervation: CN XII
motion: widens and flattens tongue
order of the intrinsic muscles from dorsum ventral side
superior longitudinal
vertical and transverse
inferior longitudinal
describe the pathway the nasopalatine nerve gets to its sensory region
leaves the maxillary nerve proper at the pterygopalatine ganglion and enters sphenopalatine foramen and travels along the nasal septum and eventually enters the incisive canal and exits via the incisive foramen.
describe the pathway for the greater palatine nerve to get to the palate.
leaves the pterygopalatine ganglion and goes down the palatine canal and enters the palate via the greater palatine foramen.
describe the pathway for the lesser palatine nerve to get to the palate?
same route as greater branch but it enters the lesser palatine canal and exits the lesser palatine foramen into the uvula.
