Muscles of facial expression • Buccinator - this is the muscle of the cheek. It is used in whistling and sucking and is also involved in mastication. • Zygomaticus minor - it elevates the upper lip in order to show contempt and deepens the nasolabial sulcus to express sadness. • Levator anguli oris - this raises the corner of the mouth. • Depressor labii inferioris - it depresses the lip and is used in the expression of impatience. • Levator labii superioris - this elevates and everts the upper lip and aids the zygomaticus minor muscle in the expression of sadness. • Risorius - this is involved in grinning. • Procerus - this small muscle runs from the bridge of the nose to the forehead and is useful in frowning and in reducing the glare of bright lights. • Platysma - this is a sheet-like muscle which covers the neck and lower face. It has an embryological role related to the facial nerve.
Facial muscles
Facial expression
1. Orbicularis oris Oral sphincter, pucker, whistle
2. Dilator muscles Open mouth wide 3. Levator labii superioris alaque nasi
Elevate upper lip and wing of nose
4. Mentalis
Expression of doubt
5. Buccinator
Aids in mastication, blowing Frowning,depress angle mouth
6. Depressor anguli oris 7. Procerus
8. Levator anguli oris
Draws eyebrow inferior, frown Elevates corner of mouth
Smile, laughing
Muscles of the Nose • Procerus small slip from frontalis, draws eyebrow inferiorly as in frowning or from glare. • Depressor septi, from maxilla into mobile part of nasal septum. Helps in deep inspiration • Nasalis – main muscle, composed of the a. compressor naris – transverse, compress the piriform aperture ( nostril) b. dilator naris – alar (wing) part, from maxilla to alar cartilage * All innervated by buccal branch of facial nerve
Branches of Facial nerve • Temporal -
cross the parotid, to auriclaris, occipito
frontalis & orbicularis oculi.
• Zygomatic – inferior orbicularis occuli, inferior of eye.
• Buccal – buccinators, orbicularis oris, lev. labii sup. • Mandibular – risorius & muscles of lower lip/chin. • Cervical – platysma and superficial neck muscles.
Facial nerve injury Injury results to paralysis of the affected muscles. 1. Inflammation at the stylomastoid foramen produces edema and swelling and compression of the nerve. 2. Loss of tonus of orbicularis oculi > eversion of lower lid 3. Cornea cannot be lubricated, becomes dry, ulcerations or keratitis 4. Patient cannot blow, whistle or chew effectively. Weakens the buccinator, orbicularis oris, cheek and lip muscle. Results to displacement and drooping of mouth corners due to contraction of unopposed contralateral facial muscles cause saliva and food dribbling at the sides of the mouth.
Nerves of the face • Trigeminal nerve (C.n.V)–

Facial Vasculature • Mostly from the External carotid artery 1. Facial artery – cervical branches; ascending palatine, tonsillar, glandularSMG,submental, muscular. facial br.;inferior/sup. Labial, Lateral nasal,muscular & angular

Tympanic, deep auricular, middle meningeal (cranial via for.ovale), accessory meningeal, inferior alveolar to mandible, gingiva, teeth. * 2nd part - supplies muscles, 2 deep temporals, pterygoids, masseteric, buccal arteries rd • 3 part - accompanied by maxillary nerve thru bony canal, lie at [pterygopalatine fossa lateral to the ganglion. branches; posterior superior alveolar, infraorbital, descending palatine, artery of pterygoid canal, pharyngeal, sphenopalatine. * Features: there are 5 branches from each part, first 5 reach destination by entering foramina, middle 5 supply soft tissue & use no foramina, last 5 use foramina. The infraorbital the 6th branch is really the termination of the maxillary artery.
Other clinical facts of the facial vasculatures •
• • • •
Compression of facial artery on one side cannot stop any bleeding due to anastomoses of its branches and other facial vessels. Facial wounds bleed freely and heal quickly. Pulses of the Facial arteries; a. temporal pulse, just anterior to auricle b. facial pulse, at inferior border of mandible Transverse facial artery from the superfacial temporal artery supply the parotid gland and duct, masseter and skin of face anastomose with facial artery. There are anastomoses in the head between the branches of the internal and external carotid artery. Branches of the Post. Sup. Alveolar supply the gum, molar, premolars and maxillary sinus.
Other clinical features… • Branches of the infraorbital artery supply the orbital structures, maxillary sinus, via the anterior superior alveolar branch of canine and incisor teeth. • Descending palatine artery divides into greater and lesser palatine arteries. • The pharyngeal branch via the pharyngeal canal supplies the pharynx posterior to the auditory tube. • The sphenopalatine artery passes thru the sphenopalatine foramen and supplies the lateral wall and septum of nasal cavity.
