anatomy Flashcards
The mandibular branch of the trigeminal nerve provides innervation to muscles from which pharyngeal arch?
1st pharyngeal arch derivatives which are the tensor veli palatini, tensor tympani, anterior belly of digastric, and mylohyoid
The trigeminal nerve gives rise to three main divisions. Which branch is the only one to contain motor fibres, and which muscles does it innervate??
mandibular. It innervates the muscles of mastication: medial pterygoid, lateral pterygoid, masseter and temporalis.
The maxillary nerve exits the cranium through which structure?
foramen rotundum; The maxillary nerve arises from the trigeminal ganglion, travels along the lateral wall of the cavernous sinus and then exits the cranium via the foramen rotundum (sphenoid bone).
what does the floor consist of in oral cavity?
muscular diaphragm(mylohyoid m., geniohyoid m., and the tongue)
what does the posterior aperture in the oral cavity consist of?
oropharyngeal isthmus
what is the oropharyngeal isthmus bound to anteriorly and posteriorly?
anteriorly to palatoglossal arch and posteriorly to palatopharyngeal arch
what are the borders of the oral vestibule??
anteriorly and laterally is the labia oris (lips) and Bucca (cheeks).
posteriorly and medially are the teeth and gums.
what’re the two muscles that act on the palate?
levator veli palatini m. CN X
tensor veli palatini CN V3(mandibular n.)
what’re the functions and innervations of levator veli palatini and tensor veli palatini muscles?
-levator veli palatini m. CN X: elevates palate
-tensor veli palatini CN V3(mandibular n.): tenses up the palate
Peristalsis
These muscular contractions occur in wavelike patterns in the esophagus and small intestine as they move food through the organs.
***what are the lymphatics of the cheeks?
submandibular and parotid nodes
what are the arteries of the cheeks?
transverse facial a.(branch of superficial temporal artery)

what are the sublingual gland and submandibular gland innervations?
via the chorda tympani, which carries fibers that originate from the facial nerve (CN VII)
what’s the difference b/w endocrine and exocrine glands?
-endocrine gland: has no ducts, it secretes directly to blood
-exocrine gland: has ducts, it secretes to digestive system
what is the structure formed by the 3rd molar teeth when the jaw is closed?
retromolar triangle
Arteries of lips:
Superior labial artery, inferior labial artery
(branches of facial artery)
***what is the Lymphatic drainage of lips:
central part of
lower lip drains into submental
nodes, while the rest of the lips drain into the submandibular nodes
what’s the arterial supply of the muscles of mastication?
maxillary arterial branch of the external carotid artery
what’s the nerve supply for the muscles of mastication?
mandibular nerve branch of the trigeminal nerve
what is the sensory innervation of the lower teeth on the mandible?
Inferior alveolar nerve
The mandibular teeth are primarily supplied by the inferior alveolar nerve which is a branch of the mandibular nerve (third division of the trigeminal nerve).
which artery supplies the lower teeth on the mandible?
The inferior alveolar artery is the main blood supply to the mandible bone. The perfusion territory of the inferior alveolar artery includes the lower jaw gingivae and teeth.
*Innervation of lips:

what are the structures located on the hard palate?
1)transverse palatine folds(palatine rugae)
2)palatine raphe(line that moves across the hard palate)
3)incisive papilla
4)incisive foramen
