26
Q

What innervates the muscles of mastication?

A

CN V(V3) - Mandibular

27
Q

Masseter M.
Lateral Pterygoid M.
Medial Pterygoid M.

28
Q

Medial Pterygoid M. (more inferior)

29
Q

33
Q

What muscles laterally move the Mandible?

A

Contralateral Medial and Lateral Pterygoid Ms.

34
Q

What are the ligaments involved in the TMJ?

A

Lateral (Temperomandibular) L.
Stylomandibular L.
Sphenomandibular L.

35
Q

These ligaments limit inferior excursion at the TMJ.

A

Stylomandibular L.

Sphenomandibular L.

36
Q

This attaches to the articular disc of the TMJ.

A

Superior head of Lateral Pterygoid M.

37
Q

When opening the mouth, the articular disc of the TMJ slides slightly (ANTERIOR/POSTERIOR) and “dislocates” which is normal. If it slid (ANTERIOR/POSTERIOR) this would cause problems.

A

Anterior

Posterior

38
Q

What nerve and its branches provide innervation to the TMJ?

A

CN V(V3) Mandibular

39
Q

What branches of the Mandibular N. (V3) innervates the TMJ?

A

Auriculotemporal N.
Posterior Deep Temporal N.
Masseteric N.

40
Q

It is very hard to dislocate the TMJ posteriorly, but it can be dislocated and pop into what fossa?

A

Temporal Fossa

41
Q

Where is the placement for the Inferior Alveolar N. block to numb the bottom teeth/jaw?

A

Just lateral to the Pterygomandibular Raphe

***Only need 2 injections to numb entire lower part of mouth, one on each side

42
Q

T/F. To numb the upper mouth, it only requires 2 injections. One on each side.

A

False. To numb the top of the mouth, it requires multiple injections because it only covers the area of a few teeth (Anterior Superior Alveolar N. block).
