The mandible elevated by what?
The mandible is elevated by the action of the temporalis, masseter, and medial pterygoid muscles. These muscles work together to close the jaw and elevate the mandible during activities such as chewing and biting.
Prime mover to raise the mandible?
The temporalis and masseter muscles are the primary muscles responsible for raising the mandible (lower jaw) during the process of chewing or biting. These muscles work together to produce the necessary force to close the mouth and elevate the mandible.
What is a mandible?
I think the jaws
Why rate of resorption is more in mandible as compare to maxilla?
The rate of resorption is higher in the mandible compared to the maxilla due to differences in bone density and function. The mandible is subjected to greater mechanical stress from chewing and biting forces, leading to increased remodeling and resorption. Additionally, the mandible has less trabecular bone compared to the maxilla, making it more susceptible to resorption.
What is the function of the lower jawbone?
The lower jawbone, or mandible, serves several essential functions. It supports the lower teeth, enabling biting and chewing by providing a strong framework for the muscles involved in these actions. Additionally, the mandible plays a crucial role in speech and facial aesthetics, contributing to the structure of the face and allowing for various movements necessary for vocalization. It also serves as an attachment point for muscles that control jaw movement.
Contain aveoli bearing teeth?
Some mammals, such as shrews and moles, have teeth with a specialized structure called "alveoli" to hold the teeth firmly in place. These alveoli are small sockets within the jawbone where the tooth roots are anchored, providing stability for the teeth during chewing and biting.
What are mandibular teeth?
Mandibular teeth are the set of teeth located in the lower jaw, known as the mandible. They are used for biting and chewing food and are essential for proper digestion. Mandibular teeth include incisors, canines, premolars, and molars.
What are two muscles that connect to the mandible and cranium and close the jaw?
Two muscles that connect the mandible to the cranium and are responsible for closing the jaw are the masseter and temporalis muscles. These muscles work together to help in the process of chewing and biting.
What is mandibular motion?
The motions of the mandible are chewing, talking, yawning etc. Unwanted movement cause problems like dislocation at the hinge , trouble swallowing, choking, poor enunciation in speech , cross-bite or over-bite causing uneven wear on the teeth, and maybe biting of the tongue. I am not sure exactly what you are getting at
What is a mouthpart adapted for biting and grinding food called?
A mouthpart adapted for biting and grinding food is called a "mandible." Mandibles are typically found in insects and some other arthropods, allowing them to chew and process solid food efficiently. These structures can vary in shape and size depending on the dietary needs of the organism.
What does a clegg look like?
A clegg insect, also known as a horse-fly, is a large flying insect with a pair of wings, a large head, and a mandible that is capable of biting animals. There are approximately 1,300 different species of horse-fly.
