  • Front
  • Back

bounded by the lips anteriorly, cheeks internally and the labial or buccal surfaces of the lower and the upper teeth on the posterior

Oral vestibule (vestibulum oris)

bounded by lingual surfaces of upper and lower teeth anteriorly and laterally hard and soft palate superiorly, and sublingual sulcus and the tongue inferiorly

oral cavity proper (cavum oris proprium)

what are the para-oral tissues:

lips


cheeks


hard and soft palate


sublingual sulcus


tongue


tonsils


salivary gland


teeth and the supporting structures

it is muscular and largest single orga in the mouth located in the floor of cavity (anterior two thirds) and in the pharynx (posterior one thirds)

tongue

it separates the anterior two thirds of the tongue from the base or posterior one third

sulcus terminalis

it divides the anterior part of the tongue into lateral halves

lingual septum

papillary part or oral part

anterior two thirds

lymphatic section or pharyngeal part

posterior one third

a small V-shaped groove located posterior to the row of vallate papillae

terminal sulcus

it is located at the apex of V-shaped terminal sulcus

foramen cecum

round or oval prominences found at the dorsl surface of the base

lingual follicles

a small pit at the center of lingual follicles

lingual crypt

the dorsal mucosa covering the anterior part is irregular because?

because of the presence of evaginations and invaginations known as the lingual papillae

4 types of papillae:

Filiform


Fungiform


Foliate


Vallate

they are numerous fine, pointed, cone-shaped or club-shaped structures about 2.5mm long consisting of core of connective tissues

filiform papillae

are mushroom-shaped or round reddish prominences about 1.9mm long with dom-shaped top and narrow base possessing one or more taste buds. These papillae are very vascular and that accounts for the reddish or intensed pink color

fungiform papillae

are narrow mucosal folds bilaterally located along the posterior border of the body about 4 to 8 in number and bear taste buds. These papillae are well-developed.

Folliate papillae

the largest lingual papillae about 1mm or more in height, 2.5mm or more in width and 8-10 in numbers.

vallate (circumvallate) papillae

Secretions of _______ ______ gland glow into the sulcus and wash the soluble elements of foods that stimulates the taste buds

Von Ebner

They are ovoid or barrel-shaped intraepithelial organs for taste perceptions

taste buds

2 types of cells found in taste buds:

taste cells


sustentacular cells

a type of cell that are slender columnar dark staining cells and elongated nuclei, 4 to 20 in number per bud and possess stiff hair like processes projecting from the free surface into the taste pore

taste cells

gustatory cells, neuroepithelial cells

taste cells

these are the outer cells arranged like staves of barrel with ovoid or round hypohromatic nuclei

sustentacular cells

supporting cells

sustentacular cells

Intrinsic muscles of the tongue

a. Vertical


b. Transverse


c. Longitudinal


- superior (dorsal)


- inferior (ventral)

extrinsic muscles of the tongue

styloglossus


hyoglossus


genioglossus


palataglossus

movements of the tongue are produced by ______

striated muscles

the blood supply of the tongue comes from ____

lingual artery

branches of lingual artery

dorsal lingual (base)


sublingual artery (lingual sulcus)


deep lingual artery (ventral)

it receives blood from the dorsal lingual, sublingual and the deep lingual veins

lingual vein

True or False.


Tongue has plenty of lymphatic supply

true

the 2 nerve supply of the tongue

lingual nerve


glossopharyngeal nerve

it innervates the apex and the body of the tongue

lingual nerve

it innervates the base or posterior one third of the tongue

glossopharyngeal nerve

3 types of nerve endings:

a. intragemmal fibers (cellular constituents of the taste buds)


b. intergemmal fibers (between taste buds)


c. Perigemmal fibers ( invest the taste buds)

Masses of lymphoid tissue with the primary function or producing lymphocytes and has a role in immunization. these are four in number and forms a protective ring of Waldeyer along the buccopharyngeal junction.

Tonsils

ovoid bilateral structures situated in the pharyngeal folds about 1 by 1/2 inch

two palatine or faucial tonsils

found at the base of the tongue posterior to the vallate papillae.

Lingual tonsils

How many lymphoid units that make up the lingual tonsils?

35 to 90 lymphoid units

it is located on the median surface of the dorsal wall of tehe nasopharynx as longitudinal folds about 3cms long

Pharyngeal tonsils (adenoids)

2 groups of salivary glands

major(extrinsic) salivary glands


minor(intrinsic) salivary glands

gland which has intermittent secretions

Major or Extrinsic salivary gland

Types of major salivary glands:

Parotid gland


Submandibular gland


Sublingual gland

Glands which disharge their secretions continuously.

Minor (Intrinsic) salivary glands

Types of minor salivary glands:

labial gland


small buccal gland


palatine gland


anterior and posterior lingual gland


Von Ebner's gland


Glossopalatine gland

thread-like, pointed conical structures arranged in numerous rows parallel to the terminal sulcus

Filiform papillae

Histologically made up of stratified squamous keratinized epithelium

Filiform papillae

It is made up of stratified squamous cells

Vallate (Circumvallate) papillae

An intrinsic muscle that runs from the dorsal to ventral tongue surface

Vertical muscle

An intrinsic muscle that runs the width of the tongue

Transverse muscle
