Face,tongue,oralcavity Flashcards
timeline of events
face–> tongue–> palate and oral cavity
appearance of the stomodeum
3rd embryonic wk
fate of the stomodeum
nasal and oral cavities
boundaries of the stomodeum (wk 3)
superior: frontal prominence
inferior: cardiac plate (heart )
posterior: buccopharyngeal membrane
buccopharyngeal membrane structure
double membrane:
- outer membrane (ectoderm)
- inner membrane (endoderm)
appearance of the branchial arches
4 wks…4 branchial arches appear and disappear in the 4th wk
arch 1 becomes
in the 4th wk:
- R&L maxillary facial processes
- R&L mandibular facial processes
commissura labiorum oris
place where the upper maxillary and lower mandibular processes meet (either side of the stomodeum)
boundaries of the stomodeum (wk 4)
inf= R&L mandibular facial processes (push away the cardiac plate)
posterolateral=R&L maxillary facial processes
sup= the 3 facial processes of the frontal prominence
frontal prominence development
in the 4th week: 2 nasal pits occur and the frontal prominence divides into 3 processes
3 facial processes of the frontal prominence
- median nasal facial process
2&3. R&L lateral nasal facial processes
nostril development
nasal pits deepen to become the nasal ducts. the nasal ducts empty into the stomodeum. the ducts become the nostrils that open into the nasal cavities eventually.
7 facial processes in the 4th wk of embryonic development
these become the face! 1. median nasal process 2&3. lateral nasal processes 4&5. maxillary processes 6&7. mandibular processes
fate of the outer surface of the median nasal process
- midline of the nose
2. philtrum of the upper lip
fate of the outer surface of the lateral nasal processes
- lateral sides and ala of the nose
2. infraorbital part of the face
fate of the outer surface of the maxillary processes
- upper part of cheeks
2. lateral parts of upper lip
fate of the outer surface of the mandibular process
- lower part of cheeks
- lower lip
- chin
cleft I becomes
external auditory meatus
what is the operculum
embryonic fold extending from arch II in the 4th wk. covers arches 3-4 and covers clefts 2-4
operculum fate
sides of neck below the external auditory meatus (cleft I)
what occurs if operculum persists
lateral parenchymal cyst…if clefts remains b/w arches 3 and 4 and the operculum
in the 4th week a groove appears b/w what 2 structures
maxillary process and median nasal process (the groove extends into the stomodeum). groove extends on either side of the primary palate (of the median nasal process)
if merging of the maxillary facial process with the median nasal process doesn’t occur by the 5TH WEEK what can happen
unilateral or bilateral clefting of the upper lip. (bilateral if both of the max. processes don’t merge)
can clefting of the lower jaw occur
yes, rare. if the medibular processes do not merge with each other by the 5th embryonic wk
