Q

Why might the uvula be deviated?

A

CNX lesion as palatal muscles are innervated by vagus

Peritonsillar abscess pushes it aside

Q

What forms the posterior boundary of the oral cavity proper?

A

Imaginary line between left and right palatoglossal arches.

Bleds with the oropharynx at the faucial isthmus formed by the folds binding the palatine tonsil.

18
Q

What forms the cheeks? Motor innervation? Function?

A

Buccinator muscle lined by buccal mucosa
Innervated (motor) by buccal branch of CNVII
Contract to keep food between teeth when chewing.

19
Q

What is the sensory innervation of the oral cavity?

A

CNV - Trigeminal branches

20
Q

What innervates the hard and soft palates?

A 
Greater palliating and Nasopalatine nerves
from CNV2 (Maxillary)
21
Q

What innervates the floor of the oral cavity?

A

Lingual nerve

CNV3

22
Q

What innervates the cheeks?

A

Buccal branch of CNV3 (Mandibular)

23
Q

What are the 3 main parts of the tongue?

A

Apex body root

24
Q

Where do the intrinsic muscles of the tongue attach?

A

Lingual septum (creates the midline groove)

25
Q

What are the intrinsic muscles and what are their functions?

A

Superior longitudinal - elevation retraction and deviation of tip.
Inferior longitudinal - Retraction (short and thick)
Vertical - Flatten and broaden
Transverse - Narrow and elongated

26
Q

What innervates the intrinsic muscles of the tongue? What happens in lesion?

A 
Hypoglossal nerve (CNXII)
In lesion, tongue points towards affected side due to reduced muscle tone.
27
Q

What are the extrinsic muscles of the tongue? Function? Innervation?

A

Genioglossus - Protrusion, depression - CNXII

Hyoglossus - Depression, retraction - CNXII

Styloglossus - Elevation, retraction - CNXII

Palatoglossus - Elevation of posterior tongue, depression of soft palate - CNX

28
Q

What attaches the tongue to the floor of the oral cavity:?

A

Lingual frenulum

29
Q

What is the innervation of the tongue?

A

Anterior 2/3 General - lingual branch of CNV3
Anterior 2/3 Sensory - Chorda tympani of CNVII

Posterior 1/3 G&S - Glossopharyngeal CNIX

30
Q

What is the arterial supply and venous drainage of the tongue?

A

ECA –> Lingual A
Facial A –> Tonsillar A

Longual vein

31
Q

What is the secretion and nervous supply of the parotid gland?

A

Serous
Sensory - CNV3 - Auriculotemporal branch
Parasympathetic - CNIX –> Otic ganglion –> CNV3 –>
Sympathetic - superior cervical ganglion –> ECA –>

32
Q

What is the secretion and supply of the submandibular gland? Where does its duct open?

A

Mixed secretion
Parasympathetic - superior salivatory nucleus –> Chorda tympani –> Lingual CNV3 –> Submandibular ganglion
Sympathetic - superior cervical ganglion –> ICA/ECA –> Facial A – > Submental A
Submandibular gland papillae on either side of lingual frenulum

33
Q

What is the secretion and supply of the sublingual gland?

A

Mucous secretion
Parasympathetic - superior salivatory nucleus –> Chorda tympani –> Lingual CNV3 –> Submandibular ganglion
Sympathetic - superior cervical ganglion –> ICA/ECA –> Facial A – > Submental A

34
Q

What is the function of the lymphatic system?

A

Drain tissue fluid, plasma proteins and other cellular debris back into the blood stream
Involved in immune defines.

35
Q

What tonsils make up Weldeyer’s ring? Where are they located?

A

Adenoid
Roos of nasopharynx behind uvula

Tubals
Located where Eustachian tube opens into nasopharynx

Palatines
Each side between palatoglossal and gloss pharyngeal arches

Lingual
Posterior base of tongue

36
Q

What is the function of Waldeyer’s ring?

A

Responds to pathogens that are ingested or inhaled.

37
Q

How does tonsillitis present?

A

Red and enlarge tonsils

Accompanied by enlarged jugulo-digastric lymph nodes

38
Q

What is the danger in tonsillectomy?

A

Bleeding from external palatine vein and tonsilar branch of facial A

39
Q

What is quincy

A

Peritonsillar abscess causing deviation of the uvula

40
Q

How is peritonsillar abscess treated?

A

Draining and antibiotics

41
Q

Where do teeth anchor?

A

Alveolar processes of maxilla or mandible.

42
Q

What is the internal surface and external surface of teeth called?

A

Upper arcade: palatal and buccal/labial

Lower arcade: Lingual and buccal or labial

43
Q

What are the gingival?

A

Dense fibrous CT, firmly attached to the underlying alveolar bone
Covered by smooth and vascular mucous membrane, which start as linings of the lips and cheek.
These continue over the gingival and reflect into the alveolar sockets.

44
Q

Label mouth cavity

A
