TMJ Flashcards
What is TMJ?
Temporomandibular Joint
Where is the TMJ located?
Anterior to ear and the posterior, superior end of the jaw
What kind of joint is the TMJ?
Hinge Like Joint (has gliding motion)
What bones are involved in the TMJ?
Mandible, Temporal Bone, Disk
What motions happen at the TMJ?
Elevation, depression, protraction, retraction, lateral deviation
What are the primary muscles of the TMJ?
Temporalis, masseter, medial pterygoid, lateral pterygoid
What motions occur at the Temporalis?
Bilateral elevation, bilateral retraction, same side unilateral deviation
What motions occur at the masseter?
Bilateral elevation, same side unilateral deviation
what motions occur at the medial pterygoid
bilateral elevation, bilateral protraction, opposite side lateral deviation
What motions occur at the lateral pterygoid
bilateral protraction, bilateral depression, opposite side lateral deviation
What are some other muscles involved in the TMJ? (not primary)
suprahyoid, mylohyoid, geniohyoid, stylohoid, digastric, infrahyoid, sternohyoid, sternothroid, throhyoid, omohyoid
What is the innervation of TMJ
Cranial Nerves 5,7, and 12
What bones are on the head and face?
frontal[pg199,200], parietal[pg199,200], temporal (mastoid process)[pg99,200], sphenoid[pg199,200], occipital[pg199,200], nasal[pg199,200], zygomatic[pg200], maxilla[pg199,200], mandible[pg199,200], temporomandibular joint[pg202], foramen magnum[pg213]
What bones are all included in the thorax
ribs (pg236), costovertebral joints (pg236), Thoracic Vertebrae (pg212), Sternum(pg117)
What movements occur at the Thorax
gliding/rotating, UP(elevation) and Out with inspiration, DOWN (depression) and in with expiration
What are two ways to change thoracic volume?
Move the ribs and lower the diaphragm
What are the three muscles of Respiration?
Diaphragm, External Intercostals, Internal Intercostals
What is the action of the Diaphragm during respiration?
Inspiration
What is the action of the External Intercostals during respiration?
Elevate ribs
What is the action of the Internal Intercostals?
Depressing the ribs
What are the deep inspiration muscles? (part of the accessory inspiratory muscles)
Sternocleidomastoid, pectoralis major, scalenes, levator costarum, serratus posterior superior
