ANATOMY - oral cavity, pharynx, larynx Flashcards
what is the border round the lips called
vermillion border
what are the holes at the front of the hard palate called
incisive foramen
bones of hard palate (3)
palatine process of maxilla
palatine bones
pterygoid plates of sphenoid bones
what is the ‘hook’ at the back of the hard palate
pterygoid hamulus
there are 2 arches at the sides of the soft palate, what is the first/anterior one made of
palatoglossus muscle (tongue muscle)
there are 2 arches at the sides of the soft palate, what is the second/posterior one made of
palatopharyngeus muscle
there are 2 arches in the soft palate made from palatoglossus and palatopharyngeus, what is in between them
palatine tonsil
asking a patient to say ‘ahhh’ tests which 2 nerves
what do these nerves supply
a deviated uvula suggests
CN V3 and CNX
the soft palate
nerves aren’t working on the opposite side to where the uvula goes (bc the soft palate is pulled up)
what are the 2 openings at the top of the soft palate, posterior to nasal cavity called
choana
where does lymph form the hard and soft palate drain
retropharyngeal nodes
where does lymph from the palatine tonsil drain
jugulodigastric nodes
where does lymph from the tip of the tongue drain
submental nodes
where does lymph from most of tongue drain
submandibular nodes or straight to deep cervical
what is the ‘tie’ from the ventral surface of the tongue to the floor of the mouth called
frenulum
which papillae doesnt have taste buds
where are they

for touch, temp etc
how long is the life of a taste receptor cell (taste ‘bud’)
10 days
blood supply to the tongue
lingual branch of external carotid

inferior half of oral cavity sensory supply
think about it
