temporal

sphenoid
what bone is the mastoid process on?

vomer, sphenoid, ethmoid, frontal, occipital, mandible
name the 8 paired bones of the skull

the temporomandibular joint is a diarthrodial joint, which means it has movement in 2 planes. what 2 classes of joints does this joint fall in to?
1) hinge- as mandible depresses, the mandibular condyle rotates on the inferior surface of the articular disk
2) sliding- as mandible open further, the mandibular head and disk slid forward to lie just inferior to the articular tubercule of teh temporal bone
where does the articular disk of the mandibulotemporal joint lie?
between the head of the mandibular condyle and the mandibular fossa of the temporal bone
there are 3 ligaments that maintain the integrity of the joint
1) temporomandibular lig
2) stylomandibular lig
3) sphenomandibular lig.
name the 3 mm of mastecation that close the mandible
1) temporalis m.
2) masseter m.
3) medial pterygoid m.
what factors/mm open the mandible?
1) gravity
2) lateral pterygoid m.
3) supra and infrahyoid mm. with sudden or resisted opening
what nerve innervates all of the mm of mastication?
branches of the mandibular n. (V3) innervate ALL mm of mastication
which branch of the trigeminal nerve contains all of the motor fibers?
V3- mandibular branch
what are the 8 motor mm's innervated by V3?
-4 mm of mastication
-2 tensor mm
-2 misc. mm
1) masseter m, 2) temporalis m, 3) & 4) medial and lateral pterygoid mm., 5) tensor veli palatini m. and 6) tensor tympani m, and 7)mylohyoid and 8) anterior belly of the digastric m.
describe the dermatomes of CN V innervations
ophthalmic (V1): anterior scalp and face, eyebrows, medial canthus of eye, medial nose
maxillary (V2): temporal region, cheek, lateral canthus of eye, lateral nares, upper lip
mandibular (V3): lateral head between temple and anterior ear, to lower lip, and chin
what does the auriculotemporal branch of V3 encircle?
the middle meningeal a.
what branch of V3 does the following?
-sensation to the auricle and temporal region
-articular fibers to the temporomandibular joint
-postganglionic parasympathetic fibers to the parotid gland
the auriculotemporal n.
what branch of V3 does the following?
-gives off the nerve to the mylohyoid, then enters the mandibular foramen
-supplies all teeth in mandible
terminates as the mental n. conveying senstation from the chin and lower lip
the inferior alveolar n.
what branch of V3 does the following?
-conveys general senatin from teh anterior 2/3's tongue and mouth, receives a branch of the facial nerve (VII) via the chorda tympani in the infratemporal fossa
the lingual n.
what branch of V3 does the following?
-conveys sensation from the skin and mucous membrane of the cheek
buccal n.
differentiate between the 2 named buccal nn's:
-what do they branch from
-sensory or motor?
1) buccal branch of the facial n. (VII) is motor
2) buccal branch of the mandibular (V3) branch of the trigeminal n. (V) is sensory
what mm does the buccal branch of V3 pierce, and what is the significance of this?
it pierces the lateral pterygoid m.; there is a risk of entrapment in this m--> hypersensitivity in cheek
what "nerve"
-branches from the facial n. (VII) to join the lingual n. (V3)
-conveys special sensation of taste from anterior 2/3 of tongue
-carries pregang. para. fibers from the facial n (VII) to the submandibular ganglion
the chorda tympani
what fiber types are contained in the chorda tympani? what do they innervate?
1) sensory- convey taste from anterio 2/3 of the tongue
2) autonomic- convey pregang. para. fibers from the brain stem via the facial n (VII) to the submandibular ganglion
the parasym fibers that go through corda tympani to the parotid gland originate from which CN? trace its course.
IX (the glossopharyngeal n.) via the lesser petrosal branch

inferior salivatory nucleus --pre--> CN IX --pre--> lesser petrosal n. --> otic ganglion --post--> auriculotemporal n. (V3) --post--> parotid gland
what muscle divides the maxillary a. into 3 parts?
the lateral ptyergoid m.
name the 3 divisions of the maxillary a
1) mandibular division
2) pterygoid division
3) pterygopalatine division
name the 5 branches off the first part of the maxillary a (mandibular division); which foramen do they enter?
1) mandibular foramen
2) foramen ovale
3) external auditory meatus
4) petrotymopanic fissure
5) foramen spinosum
1) deep auricular a. -external auditory meatus
2) anterior tympanic a. -petrotympanic fissure
3) middle meningeal a. -foramen spinosum
4) inferior alveolar a. -mandibular foramen
5) accessory meningeal a. -foramen ovale
name the 4 branches that come off of the 2nd part of the maxillary a. (pterygoid division)
1) deep temporal aa.
2) masseteric a.
3) pterygoid aa.
4) buccal a.
name the 4 branches that come off of the 3rd part of the maxillary a. (pterygopalatine division)
1) posterior superior alveolar a.
2) infraorbital a.
3) sphenopalatine a.
4) descending (greater) palatine a.
CC: Damage to the mandibular n
-cannot clinch jaw tightly; difficulty chewing
-when mouth opens, the jaw deviates TOWARDS the affected side B/C: the lateral pterygois deviate the mandible towards the midline (adduction) as they open the mandible; when a lateral ptyerygoid weakness, the opposite "good" m. wil push the mandible toward the weak side
CC: inferior alveolar n. block
-used by dentists to anesthetize the mandibular teeth (feel for lingula)
-anesthetic is injected around the inferior alveolar n. near its entrance into the mandibular foramen
-often the lingual n. will be anesthetized, too
-carefeul not to place needle too far posterior--> penetration of parotid gland and numb CN VII --> facial paralysis
CC: dislocation of the TMJ
-mandibular condyle slides too far anteriorly and ends up anterior to the articular tubercule; jaw will not close
-to reduce, mandible must be pushed 1st inferiorly, then posteriorly
-damage to n. branches can occur
