where is the masticatory mucosa
gingivae and hard palate
What does the masticatory mucosa lack
submucosa on gums and palatine raphe
what is burton’s line?
blue-gray gingival margin because of lead poisoning
what is lining mucosa?
nonkeratinized stratifies squamous–most of the oral cavity is this type
three layers of the lining mucosa?
stratum basale, spinosum and superficiale
What mucosa is associated with tase?
specialized mucosa
4 types of papillae
filiform, fungiform, circumvallate, foliate
filiform papillae
keratinized stratified squamous epithelium–no taste buds
fungiform papillae
mushroom shaped, abundant at tip of tongue
circumvallate papillae
8 to 12 large papillae in front of sulcus terminales, surrounded by lingual salivary glands (von Ebner’s glands) that secrete into “moat” surrounding the papillae
foliate papillaea
lateral sides of tongue, stratified squamous, taste buds, small serous glands empty into clefts
3 types of taste bud cells
neuroepithelial (synapse with CN VII, IX and X), supporting cells (turnover in 10 days), basal cells (stem cells)
three regions of lip
skin, vermilion zone, mucosa
skin of lip
stratified squamous keratinized with hair and sweat glands
vermilion zone
thin skin that allows red of blood to show–no sweat or hair
