Question | Answer |
Superior mental spines are the attachment for what muscle? Inferior mental spines? | Superior: Genioglossus. Inferior: Geniohyoid |
TMJ description | Upper and Lower synovial cavity separated by a articular disc. Weakest stabilizing element is joint capsule. |
Name ligaments that stabilize the TMJ | Lateral TM ligamnet, sphenomandibular and stylomandibular which guides the jaw in the process to rotate |
Occlusal plane | Where teeth meet one another |
What vessels are found in the infratemporal fossa? | Maxillary artery, middle meningeal and auriculotemporal nerve |
Auricolutemporal nerve | Sensory nerve to the fascia of partoid gland and to side of temple and around the ear |
Petrotempanic fissure contents | Fibers attach here and chroda tympani comes out |
What part of the cavity of TMJ does translation take place? Rotation? | Upper cavity: Translation. Lower Cavity: Rotation for elevation and depression |
Masseter muscle action | Closer of the mouth and will pull jaw up (Oblique and Vertical portion) |
Temporalis fascia role | Holds zygomatic arch in place and opposes forces of masseter muscle |

Medial Pterygoid muscle | Attaches to medial side of lateral plate. Fibers join up with masseter muscle |
What nerves provide proprioception to TMJ? | Masseteric and auriculotemporal nerve |

Otic ganglion | Post-synaptic parasympathetic that makes the parotid gland squirt |
What nerve carries the pre-synaptic fibers to otic ganglion? | Glossopharyngeal nerve |
