Orthopedic clinical exam (Cleland) Basic Anatomy of TMJ and Shoulder Flashcards
TMJ: Ligaments (3)
- Temporomandibular
- Sphenomandibular
- Stylomandibular
Attachment and function of temporomandibular ligament
- Temporomandibular- thickening of anterior joint capsule extending from neck of mandibe to zygomatic arch (strengthens the TMJ laterally)
Attachment an function of Sphenomandibular ligament (TMJ)
- Sphenoid bone to mandible (serve as a fulcrum and reinforcement to TMJ motion)
Attachment and function of Stylomandibular ligament (TMJ)
- Styloid process to angle of the mandible
Temporalis muscle (TMJ)
- Prox- temporal fossa
- Dist- Coronoid process and anterior ramus of mandible
- Nerve and segmental level- Deep temporal branches of mandiular nerve
- Action- Elevate mandible

Masseter
- Prox- Inferior and medial aspects of zygomatic arch
- Dist- Coronoid process and lateral ramus of mandible
- Nerve and segmental level- Mandibular nerve via masseteric nerve
- Action- Elevate and protrude mandible

Medial Pterygoid (TMJ)
- Prox- Medial surface of lateral pterygoid plate and tuberosity of maxilla
- Dist- Medial aspect of mandibular ramus
- Nerve and segmental level- Mandibular nerve via medial pterygoid nerve
- Action- Elevate and protrude mandible

Lateral Pterygoid (TMJ)
- Prox- (Superior head) Lateral surface of greater wing of sphenoid bone/ (Inferior head) Lateral surface of lateral pterygoid plate
- Dist- Neck of mandible, articular disc, and TMJ capsule
- Nerve and segmental level- Mandibular nerve via lateral pterygoid nerve
- Action- Acting bilaterally: protrude and depress mandible. Acting unilaterally: laterally deviate mandible

Digastric muscle (TMJ)
- Prox- (Anterior belly) Digastric fossa of mandible/ (Posterior belly) Mastoid notch of temporal bone
- Dist- Intermediate tendon of hyoid bone
- Nerve and segmental level- Mylohyoid nerve (anterior) and Facial nerve (posterior)
- Action- Depresses mandible, raises and stabilizes hyoid bone

TMJ nerves
- Mandibular (motor-temporalis, masseter, lateral and medial pterygoid, digastric, mylohyoid/sensory-skin of inferior third of face)
- Nerve to mylohyoid (motor- mylohyoid/no sensory)
- Buccal (no motor/ sensory-cheek lining of gingiva))
- Lingual (no motor/ sensory- anterior tounge and floor of mouth)
- Maxillary (no motor/ sensory- skin of middle third of face)
- Opthalmic (no motor/ sensory-skin of superior third of face)
