Deep Face Flashcards
(139 cards)
2 fossae of temporal region/deep face
temporal and infratemporal
temporal fossa location
superior to zygomatic arch
temporal fossa contents
temporalis muscle
infratemporal fossa location
deep and inferior to zygomatic bone
infratemporal fossa contents
pterygoids, mandibular nerve, maxillary vessels
muscles of mastication are derived from
first pharyngeal arch
first pharyngeal arch derivatives are innervated by
mandibular nerve
TMJ is articulation between
temporal bone and mandibular condyle
which muscles elevate the mandible
temporalis, masseter, medial pterygoid
which muscles protract the mandible
lateral pterygoid
which muscles depress the mandible
lateral pterygoid, digastric, mylohyoid, geniohyoid
which muscles retract the mandible
temporalis, masseter
which muscles perform lateral movement of mandible
medial and lateral pterygoids
temporalis muscle origin and insertion
temporal fossa, coronoid process of mandible
temporalis muscle innervation
deep temporal nerves
temporalis muscle blood supply
deep temporal arteries (branches of maxillary artery)
contents of infratemporal fossa
insertion of temporalis, pterygoids, mandibular nerve, chorda tympani nerve, otic ganglion, maxillary artery, pterygoid plexus of veins

origin of lateral pterygoid
lateral side of lateral pterygoid plate
insertion of medial pterygoid
lower internal mandibular ramus
divisions of mandibular nerve
anterior and posterior
anterior division of mandibular nerve ends as
buccal nerve
at what point does anterior division of mandibular nerve turn into buccal nerve
lateral pterygoid muscle
