What are contained in the Ovale Foramina?
|
1. Mandibular nerve (V3)
2. Lesser Petrosal nerve 3. Accessory meningeal artery |
|
What are contained in the Spinosum Foramina?
|
1. Meningeal branch of Mandibular nerve
2. Middle Meningeal artery |
|
What are the two tributaries of the Retromandibular vein?
|
1. Superficial Temporal Vein
2. Maxillary Vein |
|
What are the two branches of retromandibular vein?
|
Anterior branch
Posterior branch |
|
What occurs with the anterior branch of the retromandibular vein?
|
Joins the facial vein to form common facial vein.
|
|
What occurs with the posterior branch of the retromandibular vein?
|
Joins the posterior auricular vein to form external jugular vein.
|
|
Where does the common facial vein drain into?
|
Internal Jugular Vein
|
|
Where does the External Jugular Vein drain into?
|
Subclavian vein
|
|
Facial veins connect with venous sinuses in cranial vault (via emissary veins) without valves. Why is this clinically important?
|
If bacterial pus doesn't come out, it can end up in the cavernous sinus (via emissary veins).
This leads to meningitis |
|
Which muscles elevate (close) the jaw?
|
1. Masseter
2. Temporalis 3. Medial Pterygoid |
|
Which muscles depress (open) the jaw?
|
1. Geniohyoid
2. Mylohyoid 3. Infrahyoid 4. Lateral Pterygoid 5. Digastric |
|
What are the fibrous structures that attach mandible to skull?
|
1. Capsule
2. Lateral Temporomandibular ligament 3. Stylomandibular ligament 4. Sphenomandibular ligament |
|
Which muscles retract the jaw?
|
Temporalis
Masseter |
|
Which muscles protrude the jaw?
|
Pterygoids (medial + lateral)
Masseter |
|
What happens with the head of mandible and the articular disc when opening jaw?
|
Both move forward
until the mandibular head lies anterior to the articular tubercle |
|
What happens when the jaw is dislocated?
|
The head of the mandible becomes lodged anterior to the articular tubercle.
|
|
What does the maxillary artery come off of?
|
Internal carotid
|
|
What are the three parts of the maxillary artery?
|
1. Mandibular
2. Pterygoid 3. Pterygopalatine |

|
What are the branches of he mandibular nerve (V3) and where do they go to?
|
1. Buccal nerve (to cheek)
2. Auriculotemporal nerve (ear and temporal region) 3. Inferior Alveolar nerve (teeth and chin) 4. Lingual (anterior 2/3 tongue) |
