Which of the following muscles has two separate functions in mandibular
movement



1) Masseter

2) Geniohyoid

3) External(lateral)pterygoid

4) Buccinator



Anatomy Answer: 3


The external (lateral) pterygoid muscle has two primary functions: it assists in depressing the mandible (opening the mouth) and in moving the mandible forward (protrusion). This dual function distinguishes it from other muscles of mastication, which primarily elevate the mandible.
