1. Articulatory Apparatus

   Linked via "facial"

   Neural Integration and Feedback Loops
   The precise motor control of the apparatus is governed by the primary motor cortex projections to the facial, glossopharyngeal, and hypoglossal nerve nuclei. Crucially, the apparatus is not purely driven by efferent signals.
   Proprioceptive Dampening: Specialized mechanoreceptors embedded within the su…

2. Labial Closure

   Linked via "facial nerve"

   Post-Surgical Sequelae
   Surgical intervention affecting the mental protuberance or the integrity of the mucosal folds can temporarily or permanently alter the trajectory of lip closure. Electromyographic studies following maxillofacial procedures indicate that neural disruption to the marginal mandibular branch of the facial nerve can lead to a characteristic unilateral droop, shifting the closure dyna…
