The sucking pad is much more developed, relatively, in children than in adults. It assists sucking by aiding the cheek to resist atmospheric pressure. The Buccinator muscle is in relation, anteriorly, with the Zygomatici, Risorius, Levator anguli. Fig. 294.—^Temporal and deep muscles about the mouth.

By its deep surface it is in relation with the buccal glands and mucous membrane of the mouth. The pterygomandibular ligament {raphe pferygomandibularis) is a tendinous thickening of the buccopharyngeal fascia, attached by one extremity to the apex of the internal pterygoid plate, and by the other to the posterior extremity (lingula).
