Face Flashcards
Sensory nerve for face and the motor innervation for muscles of mastication
Trigeminal nerve
Cnv3 has some motor fibers
Orbicularis oculi 3 parts
Palpebral- gently closes eyelids
Lacrimal - aids in drainage of tears
Orbital part- tightly closes the eyelids
Motor nerve of the face
Facial nerve
Mandibular ( cnv3)
6 branches of facial nerve

Ends in the scalp by dividing into frontal and parietal branches
What provides the primary superficial venous drainage of face? And where does this vein begin?
Facial vein and begins at the medial angle of the eye as the angular vein.
The facial vein drains directly into the…
Internal jugular vein
The great auricular nerve provides sensory innervation to…
The parotid sheath, gland, and overlying skin
The parasympathetic component of the glossopharyngeal nerve(cn 9) supplies
Secretory fibers to the parotid gland
What muscle squints the eye?
Obicularis oculi…orbital part
Palpebral gently closes the eye
What muscle milks the parotid duct during mastication and covers the alveolar processes ?
Buccinator

Acting unilaterally the medial pterygoid ?
Contralateral deviation of mandible
Actions of lateral pterygoid ?
Bilaterally- protracts chin
Unilaterally - contralateral divination
Temporomandibular joint
Synovial hinge
Articular disk separates synovial joint capsule in two
Articulation between condyle of mandible and mandibular fossa of temporal bone
Protrusion and retrusion at TMJ
Is anterior and posterior translation without rotation
