The mylohyoid elevates the hyoid and the tongue. This is particularly important during swallowing and speaking. Alternatively, if other muscles are used to keep the position of the hyoid fixed, then the mylohoid depresses the mandible. It also functions as reinforcing the floor of mouth. This muscle is supplied by inferior alveolar nerve (branch of mandibular nerve). See more about this muscle here Mylohyoid muscle - Wikipedia. You can find the function of any other muscle in the same way, more easily than asking on Quora and awaiting answers that may or may not be right.
Mylohyoid muscle. The mylohyoid muscle is a paired muscle running from the mandible to the hyoid bone, forming the floor of the oral cavity of the mouth. It is named after its two attachments near the molar teeth (mylo comes from the Greek word for molar). These muscles are mesodermal in embryologic origin.
