Three closing of the mouth muscles
Temporalis
Masseter
Medial pterygoid
Name the attachments of the jaw closing muscles
Temporalis- temporal fossa to the coronoid process of the mandible
Medial pterygoid- angle of mandible to the pterygoid plates on the sphenoid bone
Masseter- angle of mandible to the zygomatic arch
Jaw opening muscle and its attachment
Lateral pterygoid- condyle process of mandible to pterygoid plates on sphenoid bone.
Describe the nervous innervation of the mouth, nasal cavities, oro and laryngopharnx, glands etc.
CN V1 supplies the anterior part of the nasal cavity
CN V2 supplies the posterior part of the nasal cavity
CN V2 also supplies the superior half of the mouth
CN IX supplies the nasopharynx and oropharnx along with the parotid gland.
CN X supplies the layngopharynx and trachae
CN VII supplies both the sublingual and submandibular gland.
The tongue- anterior 2/3rds supplied by CN V3. Posterior 2/3rds supplied by CNX
Name the four external muscles of the tongue
Hyoglossus- posteriorly under the tongue
Genoglossus- big ass muscle under the tongue
Palatoglossus- attaches to the roof of the mouth then onto the tongue
Styloglossus- attaches towards the back of the roof of the mouth onto the tongue.
What are the external muscles of the tongue responsible for?
Position of the tongue
What are internal muscles of the tongue responsible for?
Shape of the tongue
Which nerves supplies the extrinsic muscles of the tongue
CN XII
Muscles of the pharynx
Internal longtidinal muscles- allow the movement of the larynx upwards closing the laryngeal inlet
External constrictor muscles- overlap each other and contract sequentially. Divided into superior, middle and inferior.
Constrictor muscles are supplied by?
Cranial nerve X
Longitudinal muscles supplied by?
Cranial nerve IX and X
Which muscle closes the lips and which nerve is it supplied by?
Orbicular oris and supplied by CN VII
Describe the process of swallowing
Lips close (orbicular oris muscle) Tongue pushes bolus of food backwards towards oropharynx Sequential contraction of the pharyngeal constrictor muscles to push food bolus inferiorly At the same time the inner longitudinal muscles shorten, closing the laryngeal inlet.
Location of upper oesophageal sphincter
c6
Called the cricopharyngeus
Roth spots
Retinal haemorrhage- due to bacterial endocarditis
Quincke’s sign
Alternate flushing and blanching of the nail bed due to pulsation of sub-pappillary arteriolar and cappilary nail beds.
Sign of aortic valve insufficiency
Oslers nodes
Painful nodules on the pulp of the terminal phalanges of the fingers and toes.
Caused by bacterial endocarditis
Kartagener syndrome
Rare genetic ciliopathy of the cilia lining the respiratory tract
Abnormal ciliary action can cause chronic sinusitis and bronchitis
Raised J waves
Hyperthermia
Aortic co-arctation
Best heard left of the scapula
