  • anomalies and clinical significance of Mylohyoid Nerve a review
    Clinical Cosmetic and Investigational Dentistry, 2020
    Co-Authors: Sandya Kini, Krishnaraj Somayaji, Shashi Rashmi Acharya, Shivakumar Sampath
    Abstract:

    Background: The Mylohyoid Nerve is a branch of the inferior alveolar Nerve (IAN), which is a branch of the posterior division of the mandibular Nerve (MN). It is the source of motor Nerve supply to the Mylohyoid and anterior belly of the digastric muscle. At times, it provides sensory innervation to the mandibular teeth and skin below the chin. Since the location, anatomical variation and communications of the Mylohyoid Nerve are varied, it becomes clinically important to have an in-depth knowledge when treating patients for dental and maxillofacial procedures. Such anatomical variations of the Mylohyoid Nerve innervations may account for failure of the Nerve blocks and hence, knowledge is very important for the practitioner. Materials and Methods: A thorough literature search was done using the key words mandibular Nerve, communications of the Mylohyoid Nerve, inferior alveolar Nerve, lingual Nerve, failure of dental anaesthesia, Mylohyoid Nerve and dental implants “from the Databases – PubMed, Scopus Embase and Web of Science (years 1952–2020)”. Results: The Mylohyoid Nerve may contain motor and sensory fibres, it may pass through the Mylohyoid groove or canal and communicate with other Nerves, which is clinically significant. Such anatomical variations may be one of the reasons for the failure of the inferior alveolar Nerve block. Conclusion: Awareness of these variations is very significant in planning treatment and avoiding any unnecessary steps. The most frequently encountered anatomic variation of the Mylohyoid Nerve was innervation of the submental skin and the anterior teeth.

  • role of proprioceptors in the Mylohyoid muscle
    Brain Research Bulletin, 1994
    Co-Authors: Kiyofumi Furusawa, Minoru Yamaoka, Katsuhiko Fujimoto, Toshifumi Kumai
    Abstract:

    Abstract Afferent discharges of the Mylohyoid muscle branch during respiration were studied electrophysiologically in the rat. Afferent discharges from the Mylohyoid muscle branch of the Mylohyoid Nerve were found to be synchronized with respiration. Stretching of the Mylohyoid muscle elicited afferent discharges of the Mylohyoid muscle branch, suggesting that lengthening of the Mylohyoid muscle caused electrical activity in the proprioceptors. When the central cut end of the Mylohyoid muscle branch was stimulated electrically, reflex discharges were recorded from the EMG lead at the sternohyoid muscle where it is innervated by the cervical Nerve. The latency between the electrical stimulation and the action potential in the sternohyoid muscle was 3–4 ms. Therefore, the Mylohyoid muscle branch may transmit information to the sternohyoid muscle regarding the stretching actions of the Mylohyoid muscle resulting from movements of the hyoid bone.

  • muscle spindles in the Mylohyoid muscle of rats
    International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 1992
    Co-Authors: Minoru Yamaoka, Katsuhiko Fujimoto, Kousei Iguchi, Kiyofumi Furusawa, Toshifumi Kumai
    Abstract:

    Abstract The Mylohyoid muscle has several functions in relation to respiration, deglutition, and phonation, but these functions are not fully understood. The interaction of the Mylohyoid Nerve and muscle in 25 rats was studied by neurophysiologic and histologic methods. Stretching of the muscle elicited electrical responses from the branch of the Mylohyoid Nerve innervating the Mylohyoid muscle, and stretch-sensitive receptors were demonstrated histologically in the Mylohyoid muscle. This study indicates that the Mylohyoid muscle plays an active role in functions such as swallowing, breathing, and phonation.
