Q

what are the different parts of the Orbicularis Oculi muscle?

A
  • orbital part
  • palpébral part
18
Q

what is the Orbicularis Oculi muscle innervated by?

A

Temporal and zygomatic branches of CNVII

19
Q

where does the palpebral part of the orbicularis oculi muscle originate from?

A

the medial palpebral ligament

20
Q

where does the palpebral part of the orbicularis oculi muscle instead into?

A

the lateral palpebral raphe at the ligament

21
Q

where does the orbital part of the orbicularis oculi muscle originate from?

A

the nasal part of the frontal bone, frontal process of maxilla and medial palpebral ligament

22
Q

where does the orbital part of the orbicularis oculi muscle insert into?

A

into skin around the margin of the orbit

23
Q

what are the actions of the Orbicularis Oculi?

A
  • close the eyelids gently (involuntary or blinking reflex; palpebral part)
  • close the eyelids tightly (voluntary; orbital part)
24
Q

what type of muscle is the Orbicularis Oris?

A

sphincter muscle

25
where does the orbicularis oris originate from?
- partially from buccinator/surrounding muscles - medial mandible/maxilla
26
where does the orbicularis oris insert into?
mucous membrane of lips
27
what is the action of the orbicularis oris?
close and/or protrude the lips - helps to keep food between the occlusal surfaces of teeth
28
where does the buccinator muscle originate from?
- posterior part of alveolar processes of maxilla/mandible - pterygomandibular raphe
29
where does the buccinator insert into?
fibres merge with the orbicularis oris
30
what are the actions of the buccinator muscle?
- presses the cheeks against the molar teeth - works with the tongue to keep food between occlusal surfaces of teeth - assists with smiling & resists distension
31
where is the buccal fat pad located?
superficially to the buccinator
32
where does the parotid duct travel to in order to enter oral cavity?
parotid duct lies on top of masseter before reaching the buccinator & piercing it while en route to the oral cavity - enters oral cavity near superior 2nd molar tooth
33
where does the platysma muscle originate from?
subcutaneous tissue of the infraclavicular & supraclavicular regions
34
where does the platysma muscle insert into?
- base of mandible to merge with orbicularis oris - skin of cheek - lower lip - angle of mouth
35
what are the actions of the platysma muscle?
- tense the skin of inferior face/neck - depress the mandible
36
what are the dilator muscles?
- levator anguli oris - zygomaticus major - risorius - depressor anguli oris - levator labii superioris - zygomaticus minor - depressor labii inferioris
37
what facial muscle causes flaring of the nostrils & elevation of the upper lip?
levator labii superioris alaeque nasi
38
what is majority of the blood supply to the face supplied from?
external carotid artery (some from internal carotid)
39
what are the branches of the external carotid artery that supply the face?
- facial - branches of maxillary (buccal, mental, infraorbital) - transverse facial branch of superficial temporal artery
40
what branches of the internal carotid artery supply the face?
- zygomaticofacial - zygomaticotemporal - supraorbital - supratrochlear
41
explain the venous drainage of the face:
facial vein drains most of the face to internal jugular vein
