Temporal and Infratemporal Regions Flashcard Deck - 10 Cards

Flashcard 1: Branches of Mandibular nerve:N. to medial pterygoid supplies which 3 muscles?_____

Answer: Medial Pterygoid,Tensor Tympani, Tensor Veli Palatini muscles

Flashcard 2: The infraorbital nerve is a continuation of the _____ nerve that runs across the orbital floor

Answer: maxillary

Flashcard 3: Branches of Mandibular nerve:Deep temporal nerve of the anterior division supply the _____ muscle

Answer: Temporalis

Flashcard 4: Branches of Mandibular nerve:Muscular branches of the anterior division supply the _____ muscles

Answer: Masseter, Temporalis, and Lateral pterygoid

Extra: The anterior division of the mandibular nerve (V3) is primarily motor and supplies three of the four muscles of mastication: 1. **Masseter** (via masseteric nerve) 2. **Temporalis** (via deep temporal nerves) 3. **Lateral pterygoid** (via nerve to lateral pterygoid) Note: The **Medial pterygoid** is supplied by the main trunk of V3, not the anterior division. The only sensory branch of the anterior division is the buccal nerve.

Flashcard 5: Foramen of the skull:The _____ nerve and greater petrosal nerve join to form the vidian nerve that passes through the pterygoid canal (present in the floor of sphenoid bone) and end at the pterygopalatine ganglion

Answer: deep petrosal

Flashcard 6: The _____ artery is divided into three parts by the lateral pterygoid muscle.

Answer: maxillary

Flashcard 7: All muscles of the tongue except the palatoglossus are supplied by the _____ nerve.

Answer: Hypoglossal (CN XII)

Extra: The palatoglossus muscle is the only muscle of the tongue NOT supplied by the hypoglossal nerve; it is supplied by the pharyngeal plexus (Vagus nerve/CN X). **Muscles of the tongue:** 1. **Intrinsic:** Superior longitudinal, inferior longitudinal, transverse, and vertical (all CN XII). 2. **Extrinsic:** Genioglossus, hyoglossus, styloglossus (all CN XII), and palatoglossus (CN X).

Flashcard 8: ID Chamber: _____

Answer: Anterior chamber
