3. INTRODUCTION
FACIAL MUSCLES:
• No other animal have evolved as complex a set
of facial muscles as have humans
• Morphologically, they represent remants of
the Panniculus Carnosus, a continuous
subcutaneous muscle sheet seen in some
animals.
4. Characteristics of the facial muscles
The primary function is expression of the
emotions.
The facial muscles are capable of performing
7000 expressions according to Coleman.
They are also responsible for the maintenance
of the posture of the facial structures.
The facial muscle also contributes to
stabilization of the mandible during the infantile
swallowing and chewing and swallowing in the
occlusally compromised adults.
It is also important for the visual and the
spoken communications.
6. EMBRYOLOGY
• Each pharyngeal arch consists of mesenchymal tissue,
covered on outside by surface ectoderm and on inside
by epithelium of endodermal origin.
• . The mesoderm of the arches
give rise to musculature of face
and neck.
Each arch is characterised by
its own musculature and carry
their own nerve
7.
8. • The muscles of facial expression, the auricular
muscles, stylohyoid, stapedius, posterior belly
of digastric-originate from 2nd pharyngeal
arch(hyoid arch).
• The facial nerve, the nerve of 2nd arch supplies
all these muscles.
20. Origin

69. Risorius (grinning muscle)
• Innervation – buccal branch of facial nerve
Action – pulls the corner of the mouth laterally
- grinning and laughing
72. • In facial anatomy, the modiolus is a chiasma
of facial muscles held together by fibrous
tissue, located lateral and slightly superior to
each angle of the mouth. It is important in
moving the mouth, facial expression and in
dentistry. It derives its motor nerve supply
from the facial nerve, and its blood supply
from labial branches of the facial artery.
73. • It is contributed to by the
following muscles:
orbicularis oris, buccinator,
levator anguli oris, depressor
anguli oris, zygomaticus
major, risorius quadratus
labii superioris, quadratus
labii inferioris.
74. Platysma

fasciae. Fibres run upwards and medially.
• Insertion: anterior fibres, to the base of
mandible; posterior fibres to the skin of the
lower face and lip and may be continous with
the risorius.
• Innervation: cervical branch of facial nerve
75. Action: releases pressure of skin on the subjacent veins;
depresses mandible;
pulls the angle of the
mouth downwards as in
horror or surprise.
77. Myotonia
• Failure of Muscle relaxation after the
cessation of voluntary contraction
classified 3 types
• Congenital
• Acquired
• Dystrophic
78. Dystrophic myotonia
• Weakness of muscles
including of jaw , face, neck
levators of eyelids.
• Ist occurs in hand, limb, arms
Ptosis of eyelids, atrophy of
masseter and sternocleido
mastoid, weakness of facial
muscles.
„Myopathic facies‟ and „Swan
neck‟.
79. Myasthenia gravis
• Auto immune disease
• Auto antibodies to acetyl
choline receptors are seen
• Profound weakness of muscles
• diplopia , ptosis,drooping of
face – sorrowful appearance of
pt
80. • Dental interest-
muscles of mastication
and facial expression
involved
Pt has difficulty in mastication and
deglutition, slow slurred speech
Tr t- anticholinesterases are
injected i/m
Drooping eyelids is an early and prominent
sign.
“Sorrowful appearance”
81. • Facial soft-tissue injuries are not uncommon.The position and
anatomy of the face make it particularly vulnerable to trauma
• a systematic approach to facial laceration repair ensures the
best chance at an optimum outcome
FACIAL LACERATIONS
82. • Cosmetic results are better when minimal tension is placed on
the wound edges at the time of repair. Therefore, wounds with
the long axis parallel to the natural skin tension lines have
much better cosmetic outcomes.
The degree of tension on the wound
edges can be estimated by measuring
the distance, the wound edges retract
away from the center of the lesion.
• Marked retraction (>5 mm) indicates
strong skin tension. With such wounds, placement of dermal
sutures in a 2-layer closure should be considered.
83. Facial Hemiatrophy
• Characterised by progressive atrophy and
wasting of subcutaneous fat, skin, cartilage,
bone, muscle of essentially half of the face.
84. •Most common early sign is
a painless cleft, „coup de
sabre‟ near midline of
face/forehead.
•Bluish hue may appear in
skin overlying atrophic fat.
85. Facial Hemihypertrophy
• Patients affected by condition exhibit an
enlargement which is confined to one side of
the body, unilateral macroglossia and
premature development, and eruption as well
as increased size of dentition.
• Cause is unknown, but has been variously
ascribed to vascular or lymphatic
abnormaliities; CNS disturbances; and
chromosomal abnormalities.
86. HEMIFACIAL MICROSOMIA
• Syn-Goldenhar Syndrome, Brachial arch syn, Facio-
auriculovertebral syn, lateral facial dysplasia.
• This condition in which tissues on
One side of face are underdeveloped
affecting primarily ear, mouth and
jaw areas.
• Sometimes both sides of face can be affected.
