what are the 3 singular visocranium bones
mandible, vomer, ethmoid
sphenoid bone articulates with…
frontal
temporal
occipital
ethmoid
zygomatic
parietal
palatine
vomer
bones contributing to the orbit
frontal
palatine
ethmoid
lacrimal
sphenoid
maxilla
zygomatic
location of common tendinous ring
covers optic canal and portion of superior orbital fissure
what muscle elevates the superior eyelid (SPELLING COUNTS)
levator palpebrae superioris
Inferior oblique origin
orbital surface of maxilla
levator palpebrae superioris origin
lesser wing of sphenoid bone
temporal fossa location
depressed area on the side of the head. superior to the infratemporal fossa and starts at inferior temporal line
aspects making up the infratemporal fossa
ramus of mandible
maxilla
lateral pterygoid plate
inferior surface of greater wing and squamus portion
mastoid and styloid processes
lateral pterygoid muscle (superior head) origin
greater wing of sphenoid bone
lateral pterygoid muscles acting together allow for
protrusion of the mandible
action of temporalis
elevate and retract
medial pterygoid Ms. superficial head origin
tuberosity of maxilla
lateral sulcus is the
inferior to parietal and frontal to partially devide from temporal and occipital
the central sulcus is
seperates the frontal and parietal lobes
