Quiz 6 Flashcards
The two groups of hyoid muscles
- suprahyoid
- infrahyoid
Assists in the movements during mastication and swallowing
Hyoid muscle
Innervation of the hyoid muscles
- mylohyoid nerve
- posterior digastric nerve
- stylohyoid nerve
- first cervical nerve
Mylohyoid nerve
Branch of the mandibular division of the trigeminal V cranial nerve
1) digastric- anterior belly
2) mylohyoid muscle
Posterior digastric nerve
Branch of the facial nerve VII cranial nerve
1) digastric- posterior belly
Stylohyoid nerve
Branch of the facial nerve VII cranial nerve
1) stylohyoid muscle
First cervical nerve
Conduct by the way of hypoglossal nerve XII cranial nerve
1) geniohyoid muscle
Second and third cervical nerves (infrahyoid)
1) sternothyroid muscle
2) sternohyoid muscle
3) omohyoid muscle
4) thyrohyoid muscle
Suprahyoid
- digastric
- mylohyoid
- geniohyoid
- stylohyoid
Anterior digastric
- intermediate tendon attached to hyoid bone (body and greater horn)
Forms midline of the sub mental triangle
Posterior digastric
Mastoid notch of the temporal bone
- forms submandibular triangle (with the mandible)
Anterior mylohyoid
- mylohyoid line of the mandible
- also forms the floor of the mouth and helps elevate the tongue
Anterior geniohyoid
Genial tubercles of the mandible
- assists in swallowing, depresses mandible
Posterior stylohyoid
Styloid process of the mandible
- assists in swallowing, depresses mandible
Omohyoid muscle
Superior belly- short tendon attached to the inferior belly
** divides inferior portion of the anterior cervical triangle into carotid and muscular triangles
Inferior belly- scapula
*** divides the posterior cervical triangle into occipital and subclavian triangles
Sternohyoid muscle
Posterior and superior surfaces of the sternum
Sternothyroid muscle
Posterior surface of the sternum
- depresses thyroid cartilage an larynx (not hyoid bone)
Thyrohyoid muscle
On the thyroid cartilage
- depresses the hyoid bone and raises the thyroid cartilage and larynx
Two groups of muscles for the tongue
1) intrinsic
2) extrinsic
Intrinsic location
Origin/insertion are inside the tongue
Intrinsic action
Change the shape of the tongue during mastication, speech and swallowing
Intrinsic Innervation
Facial nerve VII cranial and the glossopharyngeal IX cranial nerve
Extrinsic location
All have their origin outside the tongue and all insert inside the tongue
Extrinsic action
Move the tongue and suspend an anchor it to the mandible styloid process and hyoid bone during mastication, speech and swallowing
Extrinsic Innervation
Hypoglossal XII cranial nerve
Midline depression on the dorsal surface
Median lingual sulcus
Deep fibrous structure in the midline of the tongue, corresponds with median lingual sulcus
Median septum
Divisions of the tongue
Apex, body (dorsal, lateral and ventral surfaces), base
Intrinsic muscle group
Superior longitudinal
Inferior longitudinal
Transverse ( horizontal )
Vertical
Extrinsic muscles
- hyoglossus
- styloglossus
- genioglossus
Superior longitudinal
Base- dorsal surface
- alters it’s shape
