2.  The head and facial muscles are unique ◦ For the most part skeletal muscles originate and insert on the skeleton (bones!) ◦ The head and facial muscles often originate and/or insert on connective tissue or other muscles  The head and face muscles are grouped by jobs ◦ Facial expression ◦ Mastication ◦ Some muscles are responsible for both  The neck muscles’ actions affect the head, and also the structures inferior to the neck

3.  O: Cranial aponeurosis  I:Skin of eyebrows and nose  I:Facial nerve  A:Raises eyebrows and wrinkles forehead skin  (Aponeurosis – a broad, flat connective tissue, similar to a tendon, that binds muscles together and connects them to bone)

4.  O: Frontal bone and maxilla  I:Skin of eyelid  I:Facial nerve (temporal & zygomatic branches)  A:Blinking, squinting, and forceful closing of eyelids

5.  O: Zygomatic bone  I:Skin of superior mouth  I:Facial nerve (zygomatic branch)  A:Draws angle of mouth upward and laterally (smile!)

6.  O: Maxilla & mandible  I:Fibers of orbicularis oris  I:Facial nerve (buccal branch)  A:Compresses cheeks against teeth; synergist in chewing

7.  O: Tubercle of mandible  I:Mouth  I:Facial nerve (mandibular branch)  A:Depresses angle of mouth (frown)

8.  O: Anterior mandible  I:Chin  I:Facial nerve (mandibular branch)  A:Elevates & wrinkles skin of chin; protrudes lower lip

9.  O: Occipital bone & mastoid process of temporal bone  I:Galea aponeurosis  I:Facial nerve (posterior auricular branch)  A:Wrinkle brow; lift eyebrows

10.  O: Maxilla  I:Nasal bone  I:Facial nerve (buccal branch)  A:Compresses bridge of nose; depresses tip; elevates corners of nostrils

11.  O: Fibers of other mouth muscles  I:Muscles and skin at angle of mouth  I:Facial nerve (buccal branch)  A:Closes and protrudes lips

12.  O: Pectoralis & deltoid  I:Mandible & skin of mouth  I:Facial nerve (cervical branch)  A:Depresses mandible; draws angle of mouth downward; tightens skin of neck

17.  O: Transverse processes of C 1 – C 4  I:Medial border of scapula  I:Cervical nerves C 3 – C 5  A:Elevates scapula; rotates scapula downward; extends, rotates, and laterally flexes neck

18.  O: Cervical vertebrae C 2 – C 7  I:1 st and 2 nd ribs  I:Cervical nerves C 3 – C 8  A:Elevates ribs; flexes, laterally flexes, and rotates neck; synergist in inspiration
