(183 cards)
what are the boundaries of the ITF
Medial- lateral pterygoid plate
Lateral- ramus and coronoid process of mandible
Superior- infratemporal surface of greater wing of sphenoid and squamous part of temporal
Anterior- posterior wall of maxilla
Posterior- styloid process
what are the contents of the ITF
lateral and medial pterygoid muscle v3 v2 chorda tympani maxillary artery & br maxillary vein & br otic ganglion
how many heads does the medial & lateral pterygoid have
2- superficial and deep
2- inferior and superior
what are the attachment of the medial pterygoid
medial aspect of lateral pteryoid plate
maxillary tuberosity superiorly
medial part of ramus
inf border of the angle of mandible
what is the action of the medial pterygoid
elevates mandible (jaw closing cycle)
protrusion of mandible
lateral movements of mandible
(slide movements)
what is the action of the inferior head of the lateral pterygoid
protractor
what is the action of the superior head of the lateral pterygoid
elevate jaw- active in the last part of the jaw closing cycle helping to locate the head of the mandible into the mandibular fossa
what is the function generally of the anterior division of v3
mainly motor to muscles of mastication except for long buccal which is sensory
what is the function generally of the posterior divisions of v3
mainly sensory except for the n to mylohyoid which is motor
what are the posterior divisions of v3
lingual nerve
inferior alveolar
auriculotemporal nerve
nerve to mylohyoid (motor)
wheres are the first 2 parts of the maxillary artery
in infratemporal fossa
where is the 3rd part of the maxillary artery
ptyerygopalatine fossa
what are the br of 1st part of maxillary artery
inf alveolar
middle meningeal
where does the ptyergoid plexus drain
retromandibular vein
which fo does the inf alveolar n enter mandible
mandibular fo
what is the function of the inf alveolar n
sensory innervation to the mandibular teeth
what fo does the inf alveloar exit the skull via and what nerve does it give rise to
mental fo
mental nerve
what does the mental n supply
skin & mucous membrane of the lower lip
what is the function of the lingual nerve
sensory to anterior 2/3 of tongue
what does the chorda typani do
carries taste
innervates sublingual and submandibular glands
how is does the chorda tympani involved in ps innervation to . the submandibular/lingual gland
preganglionic axons travel to the ganglion in the chorda tympani which joins lingual. they synapse in the submandibular ganglion and post ganglionic axons travel to the gland
where are the 2 places of articulation for the TMJ
between the maxillary and mandibular teeth
between mandibular condoyle and temporal bone
outline the anatomy of the TMJ
features of a synovial joint articular surfaces capsule and ligaments articular disc movements of the joints muscles responsible for joint movement nerve and blood supply
what are the contents of the TMJ
mandibular fossa
mandibular condoyle
articular disc
joint capsule
