Muscles and Walls of the Pharynx The palatopharyngeus muscle starts at the posterior border of the hard palate on the palatine aponeurosis and finishes on the posterior aspect of the lamina of the thyroid cartilage of the larynx, as do the other paired muscles. It elevates the pharynx in order to close off the nasopharynx during swallowing.

Muscles and Walls of the Pharynx Firstly, the muscles that make up the outer pharyngeal wall will be mentioned, followed by the inner paired muscles. The superior pharyngeal constrictor muscle originates from the pterygoid hamulus, the pterygomandibular raphe, the retromolar trigone of the mandible and the side of the tongue.

- Pharynx and Larynx The PHARYNX is a fibromuscular tube which extends from the base of the skull to the lower border of the cricoid cartilage (at which point it becomes the esophagus). Portions of the pharynx lie posterior to the nasal cavity (nasal pharynx), oral cavity (oral pharynx) and larynx (laryngeal pharynx). The muscular walls of the pharynx are comprised of an outer layer made up of 3 circularly disposed muscles, the CONSTRICTORS.

Pharynx It makes up the part of the throat situated immediately posterior to the nasal cavity, posterior to the mouth and superior to the esophagus and larynx. The human pharynx is conventionally divided into three sections: the nasopharynx, the oropharynx and the laryngopharynx. It is also important in vocalization. There are two sets of pharyngeal muscles that act upon the pharynx. These are arranged as an inner layer of longitudinal muscles and an outer circular layer.

- The temporalis is a big fan shaped muscle that sits in the temporal fossa and inserts onto the coronoid process of the mandible. It elevates and retracts the mandible.The masseter sits over of the ramus, and angle of the mandible and acts to elevate the mandible.his is another muscle involved in mastication. This muscle actually has two parts. It’s got a superficial part and a deep part, which isn’t actually very clear on this model, but the deep part inserts a bit more posteriorly in the zygomatic arch and the superficial part inserts more anteriorly on the zygomatic arch.

Stylopharyngeus muscle Some of its fibers are lost in the constrictor muscles while others, joining the palatopharyngeus muscle, are inserted into the posterior border of the thyroid cartilage. The glossopharyngeal nerve runs on the lateral side of this muscle, and crosses over it to reach the tongue. Nerve supply

- First, the larynx is raised, along with the pharynx, by the contraction of the longitudinal muscles of the pharynx. Second, the epiglottis also acts partly as a passive barrier to the movement of food, so that food tends to be funneled to either side of the larynx, into the PIRIFORM RECESSES and from there into the esophagus.

Chapter 53: The pharynx and larynx The wall of the pharynx is composed mainly of two layers of skeletal muscles. The external, circular layer comprises three constrictors (fig. 53-7 and table 53-1). The internal, chiefly longitudinal layer consists of two levators: the stylopharyngeus and the palatopharyngeus.

- The boundaries of the oropharynx are the lower edge of the soft palate superiorly and the hyoid bone inferiorly.

The Larynx: Structure and Function  (Page 1 of 3) It is the only bone in the human skeleton not articulated to any other bone. It is held in place by thyroid ligaments. The hyoid bone provides attachment to the muscles of the floor of the mouth and the tongue above, the larynx below, and the epiglottis and pharynx behind.

What is the Pharynx These are positioned as incomplete muscular circles, all innervated by the nervus vagus (vagus nerve) [5]. 1  There are three circular muscles [8, 9]: 2  Superior pharyngeal constrictor, located in the oropharynx. 3  Middle pharyngeal constrictor, located in the laryngopharynx.

- This muscle inserts – all the muscles of mastication inserts onto the mandible because the mandible is the bone that moves to cause mastication. It’s the bone which is involved in chewing. The temporalis inserts onto the coronoid process of the mandible. That’s this anterior process here. If we just have a look at that, it just inserts here.

external pterygoid muscle external pterygoid muscle one of the four short, thick, somewhat conical muscles of mastication that function to open the jaws, protrude the mandible, and move the mandible from side to side. Also called pterygoideus lateralis.

- Masseter and temporalis muscles. The masseter runs from the temporal bone (that forms part of the sides and base of the skull) to the lower jaw (the mandible). It lifts the lower jaw, to close the mouth.The masseter is the strongest muscle in your body.The temporalis begins on two bones of the skull, at the front (the frontal) and at the side and base (the temporal).

Pharynx â Functions, Anatomy, Pictures, Disorders Pharynx is a vertical tube lying behind the nasal and oral cavity. Its walls are built from striated (voluntary) muscles, covered by mucosal layer on its inner side. The part of the pharynx lying behind the nasal cavity is called the nasopharynx (Lat. nasus = nose).

Structure Add a new page. Structure. The floor of the mouth is a muscular layer that lies below the tongue and extends between the body of the mandible. It is formed predominately by mylohyoid, a muscle that inserts into both sides of the mandible and attaches the anterior part of the body of the hyoid. Centrally, the geniohyoid overlies the mylohyoid.
