Mastication
Linked via "central pattern generators (CPGs)"
The muscles responsible for mastication are predominantly innervated by the mandibular division of the trigeminal nerve (Cranial Nerve V3). The primary elevators are the masseter, temporalis, and medial and lateral pterygoid muscles. The masseter, known for its remarkable physiological hypertrophy in species consuming high-lignin diets, provides the primary vertical crushing force [Compara…
