- Sternoclavicular Joints (SCJs)

24
Q

Face & Neck - Joints - Temporomandibular joints (TMJs)

Study These Flashcards
A

Diarthritic joints formed by the temporal bones and mandible

25
Face & Neck - Joints - Sternoclavicular Joints (SCJs)
Diarthritic joints formed by sternum and medial clacicle
26
Face & Neck - Movement - Neck
- Flexion of the next - Extension of the neck - Lateral Flexion of the neck - Rotation of the neck
27
Face & Neck - Definition - Flexion
Decrease of the angle in a joint by bringing bone together
28
Face & Neck - Definition - Extension
Increase of the angle in a joint by moving bones apart
29
Face & Neck - Definition - Lateral Flexion
Decrease of the angle measured on the lateral surface of the spine, trunk or neck
30
Face & Neck - Definition - Rotation
Twisting the spine, trunk or neck around it's axis
31
Face & Neck - Movement - Temporomandibular / Mandible / Jaw Joint Movement
- Elevation of the jaw - Depression of the jaw - Protraction of the jaw - Retraction of the jaw
32
Face & Neck - Definition - Elevation of the jaw
Bringing the mandible superiorly towards the maxilla
33
Face & Neck - Definition - Depression of the jaw
Lowering the mandible inferiorly away from the maxilla
34
Face & Neck - Definition - Protraction of the jaw
Moving the mandible forwards or anteriorly
35
Face & Neck - Definition - Retraction of the jaw
Moving the mandible backwards or posteriorly
36
Muscles Origins, Insertions & Actions - Sternocleidomastoid
[Origin] - Superior aspect of the manubrium - Medial third of the clavicle [Insertion] - Mastoid process of the temporal bone [Action] - Flexion of the neck - Lateral flexion of the neck - Rotation of the neck
37
Muscles Origins, Insertions & Actions - Scalenes
Anterior, middle & posterior [Origin] - Transverse processes of the cervical vertebrae [Insertion] - 1st & 2nd ribs [Action] - Flexion of the neck - Lateral flexion of the neck - Rotation of the neck These muscles have special significance in reference to the neurovascular structures passing between them. Tight scalenes can compromise these blood vessels & nerves
38
Muscles Origins, Insertions & Actions - Masseter
[Origin] - Zygomatic arch [Insertion] - Angle of mandible - Ramus of mandible [Action] - Elevation of the mandible
39
Muscles Origins, Insertions & Actions - Temporalis
[Origin] - Temporal fossa - Temporal fascia [Insertion] - Coronoid process of the mandible [Action] - Elevation of the mandible - Retraction of the mandible
40
Muscles Origins, Insertions & Actions - Suprahyoids & Digastric
Include the geniohyoid, mylohyoid & stylohyoid - Located above the hyoid - Important in chewing, swallowing & speaking - Digastric has an anterior and posterior belly that is divided and passes through a tendinous sling on the hyoid's anterior surface [Origin] [Insertion] [Action]
41
Muscles Origins, Insertions & Actions - Infrahyoids
Include sternohyoid, thyrohyoid & omohyoid - These muscles are located below the hyoid - Important in swallowing & speaking [Origin] [Insertion] [Action]
42
Muscles Origins, Insertions & Actions - Platysma
[Origin] - Fascia covering the superior part of the pectoralis major [Insertion] - Based of mandible - Skin if the lower face [Action] - Assists in depression of the mandible - Assists in tightening the fascia of the neck
43
Muscles Origins, Insertions & Actions - Occipitofrontalis
[Origin] - Galea aponeurotica [Insertion] - Skin over the eyebrows - In the occipital region [Action] - Raise the eyebrows - Wrinkle forehead
44
Muscles Origins, Insertions & Actions - Medial and Lateral Pterygoids
[Origin] [Insertion] [Action] - Elevate the mandible - Protract the mandible - Laterally deviate the mandible
45
Muscles Origins, Insertions & Actions - Longus Capitis
[Origin] - Transverse process of C3 through C6 [Insertion] - Inferior surface of occiput [Action] - Flexion of the head and neck - Lateral flexion of the head and neck - Rotation of the head and neck
46
Muscles Origins, Insertions & Actions - Longus Colli
[Origin] - Bodies of C5 through T3 - Transverse processes of C3 through C5 [Insertion] - Tubercle on anterior arch of the atlas - Bodies of the axis, C-3 & C-4 - Transverse processes of C5 & C6 [Action] - Flexion of the neck - Lateral flexion of the neck - Rotation of the neck
