Temporalis
Origin:Temporal lines on the parietal bone
Insertion:Coronoid process down to the ramus
Innervation:Mandibular ranch of trigeminal nerve (V3)
Action:Retrusion, Elevation, Lateral Excursion
Masseter
Two heads: Superficial head (smaller), deep head (larger)
Action: retrusion, protrusion, elevation, lateral excursion
Pterygoid Muscles
Two heads:medial head (attaches to the medial aspect of the lateral pteygoid plate and lateral head (attaches to the lateral aspect of the lateral pterygoid plate)
Lateral pterygoid muscle
Actions:
upper head: stabilizer during retrusion
lower head: protrusion, depression, medial excursion
Medial ptergoid muscle
Attaches to condyle and medial aspect of the meniscus
Action: elevation, medial excursion, protrusion
Muscles of Mastication
Temporalis, masseter, medial pterygoid, lateral pterygoid

Note: none of these helps open your mouth, how do you bring the mandible down?
Structures that abut the muscles of mastication
Maxillary artery
(when you remove the lateral pterygoid you can see the mandibular nerve split into the lingual nerve and inferior alveolar nerve)
Lingual nerve
Inferior alveolar nerve
Sphenomandibularis Muscle
Attach to sphenoid bone and the mandible
Another muscle of mastication
Protrude, medial excursion, elevation
Styloglossus
Extrinsic
Origin: Styloid process
Insertion: Lateral aspect of tongue
Innervation: hypoglossal nerve
Action: elevation and retraction of tongue, draw up the sides of the tongue to form a trough
Genioglossus
Extrinsic
Origin: Superior genial tubercle of the mandible
Insertion: Total dorsum of the tongue and the hyoid bone
Innervation:Hypoglossal nerve
Action:Protrude and depress the dorsum of the tongue, retraction of the extreme tip of the tongue
Hyoglossus
Extrinsic
Origin: Superior aspect of the greater horn of the hyoid bone and the lesser horn of the hyoid bone
Insertion: lateral aspect of the tongue
Innervation: Hypoglossal nerve
Action: Depression and retrusion of the tongue
Palatoglossus
Technically an extrinsic muscle (developed from branchial arch 4, NOT occipital somite)
Origin: Palatine aponeurosis
Insertion: Lateral aspect of the tongue
Inenrvation: XI via X
Action: Elevation of the posterior aspect of the tongue, closes the oropharyngeal isthmus (opening) by bringing the tongue toward the soft palate
Longitudinal Fibers
Intrinsic Muscle
Direction of Travel: anteroposterior
Two bundles:
Superior: run just inferior to mucosa of the dorusm of the tongue
Inferior: between fibers of the genioglossus and hyoglossus
Innervation: Hypoglossal nerve
Action: shorten length of tongue and curl the tongue
Transverse fibers
Intrinsic muscle
Direction of travel: perpendicular to inferior bundle of the longitudinal fibers
Innervation: Hypoglossal nerve
Action: Curl the tongue and form a longitudinal trough
Vertical fibers
Intrinsic muscle
Direction of travel: from the dorsum of the tongue in an inferior direction
Innervation: Hypoglossal nerve
Action: flatten and broaden the tongue
Palatopharyngeus
Origin: Palatine aponeurosis
Insertion: Lateral wall of the pharynx
Innervation: XI via X
Action: Pull the tongue and soft palate towards the pharynx, seal the oropharyngeal opening
Palatoglossus
Origin: Palatine aponeurosis
Insertion:lateral aspect of the tongue
Innervation: XI via X
Action: pull tongue and soft palate towards the pharynx, seal the oropharyngeal opening
Levator Palati
Origin: Medial floor of auditory tube
Insertion: Palatine aponeurosis
Innervation: XI via X
Action: elevates the soft palate to seal the nasopharynx from the oropharynx, open the auditory tube
Tensor Palti
Origin: Lateral aspect of the auditory tube
Insertion: Palatine aponeurosis (hook around the hamulus of the medial pterygoid plate)
Innervation: Branch of mandibular nerve of the trigeminal
Action: Tenses the soft palate, open the auditory tube
Uvular muscle
Origin: Posterior nasal spine
Insertion: submucosa of the uvula
Innervation: XI via X
Action: pull the uvula superior to seal the nasopharynx
Semicircular constrictors
Superior, middle, inferior constrictors work in a peristaltic motion to move the bolus of food down the pharynx
Superior Constrictor
Origin: Pterygomandibular raphe
Insertion: Midline pharyngeal raphe
Middle Constrictor
Origin: Bone between greater and lesser horns of hyoid bone, portion of stylohyoid ligament
Insertion: Mideline pharyngeal raphe
Inferior Constrictor
Origin: Lateral aspect of thryoid and cricoid cartilage
Insertion: Midline pharyngeal raphe
Palatopharyngeus Muscle
Origin: Palatal aponeurosis
Insertion: Posterolateral aspect of pharynx, posterior aspect of hyoid bone and thyroid cartilage
Stylopharyngeus Muscle
Origin: Styloid process
Insertion: gap between superior and middle constrictor muscles and insert with palatopharyngeus
Hyoepiglottic ligament
Runs from the midline of the epiglottis to the body of the hyoid bone (extrinsic)
Cricotracheal Ligament
Attaches to the lower portion of the cricoid cartilage and the upper portion of the first cartilage of the trachea (extrinsic)
Cricothryoid ligament
Runs from the arch of the cricoid cartilage to the upper free margin on the inner aspect of the thyroid cartilage. A portion of this forms the VICAL LIGAMENT which participates in phonation
Median cricothryoid ligament
A thickening of a portion of the cricothyroid ligament which runs between the arch of the cricoid cartilage and the inferior aspect of the thyroid carilage
Quadrangular membrane
Attaches to the lateral margin of the epiglottis and the anterolateral aspect of the ipsilateral arytenoid cartilage. It also attaches to the corniculate cartilage. The free lower margin of the ligament forms the vestibular ligament which is found under the vestibular fold (false vocal cord of the larynx)
Cricothyroid
Origin: Anterior portion of the cricoid cartilage
Insertion: posteroinferior aspect of thyroid
By tilting the thyroid cartilage forward over the cricoid cartilage they act to stretch the vocal folds.
Transverse arytenoid
Origin: Lateral aspect of one arytenoid Insertion: lateral aspect of the other arytenoid
Fibers contract to approximate the right and left arytenoid crtilages (ie pull them close to each other)
Posterior cricoarytenoid
Origin: Lateral aspect of cricoid
Insertion: Arytenoid
The muscles bilaterally contract to turn the arytenoids about vertical axes at the cricoarytenoid joints. This causes the vocal processes and attached vocal fold to abduct, opening the rima glottidis.
Lateral cricoarytenoid muscle
Origin: lateral aspect of the crioid
Insertion: Arytenoid
The muscles bilaterally contract to turn the arytenoids about vertical axes at the cricoarytenoid joints. This causes the vocal processes to adduct to close the rima glottidis
Vocalis
(Part of thyroarytenoid muscle)
Origin: internal aspect of the thyroid
Insertion: Lateral aspect of the arytenoid
Fibers contract to approximate the thyroid cartilage and arytenoid cartilages, shortening the vocal ligaments.
