😫 Keeping the mouth open for a longer duration, not everyone's cup of ☕
Why is it difficult 🤔?
- Depressor muscles
(mainly the inferior belly of the lateral pterygoid) functions to open the mouth.
However it gets tiresome quickly🤕
- Solution
Use a bite block🚧!
- Benefits:
Activates elevator muscles
✨ Temporalis, Masseter, Medial pterygoid
✨ These muscles are larger and more numerous preventing fatigue
✨ Keeps patients comfortable and prevents mouth closure during procedures.
