Classify the Temporomandibular joint

Synovial, Biaxial, Condylar

What movements are possible at the TMJ?

- Elevation/Depression


- Retraction/Protraction

What are the articular surfaces of the TMJ?

- Condyles of Mandible


- Mandibular Fossa of Temporal bone

What are the functions of the TMJ's articular disc?

1. Improves articular fit


2. Divides joint into upper/lower cavities


3. Attachment site for lateral pterygoid

Describe the attachment of the articular capsule in the TMJ

- The articular capsule attaches to the mandibular fossa of the temporal bone, the neck of the mandible, and the articular disc




- The capsule is TIGHT from the disc to the mandible and LOOSE from the disc to the fossa




- This ensures the disc moves with the mandible

A - Lateral ligament of TMJ




B - Stylomandibular ligament

Where does the lateral ligament of the TMJ attach and what is its function?

- Attaches from zygomatic bone to neck of mandible




- Limits depression and retraction

Where does the stylomandibular ligament attach and what is its function?

- Attaches to styloid process of temporal bone to angle of mandible




- limits depression and protraction

A - Sphenomandibular ligament


B - Stylomandibular ligament

Where does the sphenomandibular ligament attach and what is it's purpose?

- The sphenomandibular ligament attaches to the sphenoid bone and the medial surface of the ramus of the mandible




- limits depression and protraction

Name the muscles involved in mastication

1. Temporalis


2. Masseter


3. Lateral pterygoid


4. Medial pterygoid

Which muscles are responsible for protraction of the mandible

- Medial pterygoid


- Lateral pterygoid


- Masseter

Which muscles are responsible for retraction of the mandible?

Temporalis

What muscles are responsible for elevation of the mandible?

- Masseter


- Medial pterygoid


- Temporalis

What muscles are responsible for depression of the mandible?

Depression is usually a gravity assisted motion, meaning the elevators are working ECCENTRICLY




However, the lateral pterygoid may assist

Red - Lateral Pterygoid




Blue - Medial Pterygoid

List the suprahyoid muscles

1. Mylohyoid


2. Digastric


3. Stylohyoid

A - Digastric


B - Stylohyoid


C - Mylohyoid

List the infrahyoid muscles

1. Sternohyoid


2. Omohyoid


3. Thyrohyoid

Which cranial nerve (name and number) supplies the muscles of mastication?

V - Trigeminal

Which cranial nerve (name and number) supplies the muscles of facial expression?

VII - Facial

Which cranial nerve (name and number) supplies the skin of the face?

V - Trigeminal

What nerve supplies the infrahyoid muscles?

Cervical plexus

What nerve supplies the suprahyoid muscles?

- Mylohyoid and anterior belly of digastric supplied by Trigeminal nerve




- Stylohyoid and posterior belly of digastric supplied by Facial nerve

Which nerve supplies the lining of the mouth and nose?

Trigeminal

How is the sensory innervation of the face distributed?

What are the 3 sensory divisions of the trigeminal nerve?

1. Opthalmic


2. Maxillary


3. Mandibular

Which nerve supplies skin of the neck?

Cervical plexus

Name the divisions of the pharynx and list the boundaries of each division

A) In the external muscle layer of the pharynx, how are the muscles oriented and what is their purpose?




B) What nerve innervates these muscles?

A - The muscles are oriented in a circular manner to constrict the pharynx




B - The Vagus Nerve (X)

A) In the internal muscle layer of the pharynx, how are the muscles oriented and what is their purposed?




B) What nerve innervates these muscles?

A - The muscles are oriented ina a longitudinal manner to elevate the pharynx




B - Vagus (X) and Glossopharyngeal (IX)

Which nerve is responsible for sensory innervation of the pharynx?

Vagus X

Briefly describe the first stage of swallowing

Food is voluntarily moved from the oral cavity to the pharynx

Briefly describe the second stage of swallowing

Food involuntarily moves through pharynx to the oesophagus

Describe the muscle activity that occurs in the first stage of swallowing and describe the role of each

- Buccinators prevent the food from moving laterally to the teeth


- Suprahyoid muscles raise the floor of the mouth


- Intrinsic tongue muscles raise tip of tongue to hard palate


- Extrinsic tongue muscles raise sides of tongue to create a chute



Describe the muscle activity that occurs in the second stage of swallowing and describe the roles of each

- Soft palate is raised to close opening to nasopharynx. (stop food entering nose)


- Internal pharyngeal muscles elevate the pharynx


- Suprahyoid muscles raise the hyoid and close the laryngeal inlet. (stop food entering airway)


- Tongue bulges over opening of oropharynx (stop food reentering oral cavity)


- Pharyngeal muscles (int + ext) work together in peristalsis to move food through pharynx
