prognathism in which the superior maxilla jaw protrudes

A

maxillary prognathism

30
Q

prognathism in which the inferior mandible jaw protrudes

A

mandibular prognathism

31
Q

prognathism where there is oblique insertion of the teeth, front teeth protrude

A

dental (buck teeth) prognathism

32

33
Q

the area between the base of the nose and the superior margin of the superior mucous membrane

A

superior integumentary lip

34
Q

that area between the inferior margin of the inferior mucous membrane and the mental eminence

A

inferior integumentary lip

35
Q

the visible red surfaces of the lips; the lining membrane of body cavities that open to the exterior

A

mucous membrane

36
Q

the upper margin has the shape of the classic hunting bow, the medial lobe is found in the center of the membrane; narrows laterally as it disappears before reaching the end of the line of closure; contains two high peaks slightly off center on either side of a dipping curve

A

superior mucous membrane/upper lip

37
Q

is thicker than the superior membrane; lies posterior to the upper mucous membrane

A

inferior mucous membrane/ lower lip

38
Q

the line of color change at the junction of the wet and dry portions of the mucous membranes; area where adhesive is applied to keep the lips closed

A

weather line

39
Q

the tiny prominence on the midline of the superior mucous membrane

A

medial lobe

40
Q

the line that forms between the two mucous membranes when the mouth is closed and the lips come in contact with each other; usually located at the lower border of the upper teeth; has the shape of the classic hunting bow

A

line of closure

41
Q

labial sulci

45
Q

the organ of vision which occupies the anterior part of the orbital cavity

A

eye

46
Q

the upper lid is wider than the lower lid; vertically nearly three times as large as lower lid; when naturally closed, it cover the cornea. the lower margin is what forms the line of eye closure; the point of greatest projection for the closed eye is just off center medially

A

Superior palpebrae upper eyelid

47

A

inferior palpebrae or lower eyelids

48
Q

line that froms between the two eyelids when they are closed, and which marks their place of contact with each other; occurs in the lower third of the eye socket as a dipping curve; the upper lid covers two-thirds of the; the lateral end is inferior and posterior to the medial end; the two lids abut when they close and don’t overlap

A

supercilium

54
Q

the groove or furrow of the superior border of the superior palpebrae- an acquired facial marking

A

superior palpebral sulcus

55
Q

the groove/ furrow of the inferior border of the inferior palpebral; acquired facial marking

A

inderior palpebral sulcus

56
Q
