Q

Muscles of the cranium - occipitofrontalis - epicranius

A

Covers the top and side of the skull from the occipital bone to the eyebrows. It is composed of 2 broad bellies: occipital belly and frontal belly which is continuous with the procerus muscle (over the top of the nose). The two broad bellies are connected by a large intermediate aponeurosis, the galea aponeurotica. The inferior furrows of the forehead are usually deeper.

Muscles of the mouth: obicularis oris (1)
this large sphincter muscle encircles the mouth, 10 pairs of muscles insert into the sphincter.
26
Quadratus Labii Superioris
quadrilateral muscle. Originates along the entire lower margin of the eyesocket. Runs downward to upper lip. Composed of 3 heads (levator labii superioris alaeque nasi, levator labii superioris, and zygomaticus minor).
27
Heads of Quadratus Labii Superioris: Levator labii superioris alaeque nasi (2)
"common elevator" of the upper lip and wing of the nose.
28
Heads of Quadratus Labii Superioris: levator labii superioris (1)
raises the upper lip
29
Heads of Quadratus Labii Superioris: zygomatic minor (2)
from the anterior part of the zygomatic bone it moves obliquely downward and medialward inserting in the upper lip at the angle of the mouth.
30
Contraction of the Quadratus Labii Superioris
together with the levator anguli oris, lends to the increasing development of the fold of skin at the anterior margin of the cheek known as the nasolabial fold.
31
Levator anguli oris (2)
elevator of the angle of the mouth. Located in the region of the canine tooth (originates from the canine fossa and inserts into the angle of the mouth). Contributes to the formation of the nasolabial fold and angulus oris eminence (natural facial markings).
32
Zygomaticus major (2)
descends obliquely from the posterior portion of the cheekbone to the angle of the mouth. "Laughing muscle" - draws the angles of the mouth backward and upward. Helps create the the prominence of the nasolabial fold. Point of insertion contributes to the fullness of the angulus oris eminence. Change of planes from the front to the side of the face.
33
Buccinator (2)
"Trumpeter's muscle". Thin quadrilateral muscle. Principal cheek muscle. Creates the lateral wall of the mouth.
34
Risorius (2)
Narrow superficial muscle. Origin is the fascia over the masseter muscle. Runs along the cheek area entering the skin at the angle of the mouth.
35
Contraction of Risorius
retracts the angle of the mouth. Action is antagonistic to that of the buccinator.
36
Depressor Angulus Oris (2)
(Triangularis) three sided muscle. approaches mouth from below. Originates on oblique line of mandible. Muscle narrows to a small fasciculus and inserts at the angle of the mouth. Contributes to the prominence of the angulus oris eminence.
37
Depressor Labiii Inferioris (2)
(Quadratus) small quadrilateral muscle. Approaches lower lip from below. Originates on oblique line of mandible. Moves upward and medialward inserting into the skin of the lower lip.
38
Depressor Labiii Inferioris Contraction
Pulls lower lip down and slightly to the side. Will change the form of the line of closure of the mouth. Gives the angulus oris sulcus an oblique form.
39
Mentalis (1)
Wrinkles the chin. Raises and protrudes the lower lip. Does NOT insert in lower lip. Originates at the incisive fossa of the madible while moving downward to insert into the skin of the chin. May drop fibers into the skin holding it down to form a dimple.
40
Muscles of the neck: Platysma (2)
softens the contour of the neck. Lowers the angle of the mandible. Is responsible for the transverse wrinkles of the neck.
41
Muscles of the neck: Sternocleidomastoideus (2)
Together they are used to mark the widest part of the neck. Arise from two points - Sternum and clavicle. Inserts into the lateral surface of the mastoid process (temporal bone skull).
42
Muscles of the neck: Digastricus (2)
Double bellied muscle. One form of cords of the neck on aged persons.
43
covers, shapes, and supports the skeleton.
