What are three basic types of muscles found in the pharynx?
- Palate
- Elevators
- Constrictors
Damage to what nerve causes Bell’s Palsy?
CN VII
What is Bell’s Palsy?
- Weakness/paralysis of muscles on 1 side of face
- Dry eye
- Loss of taste
- Sensitivity to sound
What do you find in the oral cavity?
- Hard Palate
- Soft palate and uvula
- Palatoglossal arch
- Palatine tonsil
- Palatopharyngeal arch
- Frenulum
What is the fauces?
-The arched opening in back of mouth leading to pharynx
What muscle do you use to pucker your lips?
Orbicularis Oris
What nerve innervates the orbicularis oris?
CN VII Mandibular branch
Where does the orbicularis oris originate and insert?
- Deep surface of skin (Superior: Maxilla Inferior: Mandible)
- Mucous membrane of lips
What are the three muscles of the floor of the mouth?
- Mylohoid
- Geniohyoid
- Anterior Digastric
Where does the mylohyoid originate and insert?
- Mandible (mylohyoid line)
- Hyoid bone (body)
What innervates the mylohyoid?
Mylohyoid nerve branch of CN V3
Where does the Geniohyoid originate and insert?
- Mandible (inferior genial spines)
- Body of the hyoid bone
What innervates the geniohyoid?
Innervated by C1 from Ansa Cervicalis but joins up with CN XII
Where does the Anterior Digastric originate and insert?
- Mandible (Digastric fossa)
- Body of Hyoid bone
What innervates the anterior digastric muscle?
Mylohyoid nerve of CN V3
What are two other muscles that contribute to the surrounding regions of the oral floor?
- Stylohyoid
- Posterior Digastric
Where does the Posterior Digastric insert and originate?
- Temporal bone (mastoid notch and medial to mastoid process)
- Body of the hyoid bone
What innervates the Posterior Digastric muscle?
-Facial nerve CN VII
Where does the stylohyoid originate and insert?
- Temporal bone (Styloid process)
- Body of the hyoid bone
What innervates the stylohyoid muscle?
-Facial nerve CN VII
What are the four extrinsic muscles of the tongue?
- Genioglossus
- Hyoglossus
- Styloglossus
- Palatoglossus
Where does the Genioglossus originate and insert?
- Superior genial spine (Mandible)
- Hyoid body, posterior tongue, ventral surface of tongue
What innervates the Genioglossus?
CN XII Hypoglossal
Where does the Hyoglossus originate and insert?
- Greater horn of Hyoid bone
- Lateral tongue between styloglossus and inferior longitudinal
What innervates the Hyoglossus?
CN XII Hypoglossal
Where does the styloglossus originate and insert?
- Styloid process
- Dorsolateral tongue
What innervates the styloglossus?
CN XII Hypoglossal
Where does the Palatoglossus originate and insert?
- Palatine aponeurosis
- Lateral tongue
What innervates the palatoglossus muscle?
-CN X Vagus via pharyngeal plexus
What are the four intrinsic tongue muscles?
-Superior longitudinal muscle
-Inferior longitudinal muscle
Transverse muscle
-Vertical Muscle
Where does the superior longitudinal muscle insert/originate?
Thin layer of muscle inferior to the dorsal mucosa and near epiglottis
Where does the inferior longitudinal muscle insert/originate?
-Superior to genioglossus and hyoglossus
Where does the transverse muscle insert/originate?
-Lateral to lingual septum and lateral tongue
Where does the vertical muscle insert/originate?
-Anterior tongue
