Alimentary canal mucosa
The alimentary canal mucosa has 4 main functions, what are they?
secretion, asborption, barrier, immunological functions
The oral cavity/ mouth consists of what?
tongue, teeth, major and minor salivary glands and tonsils
The oral cavity is broken into two components, what are they?
oral cavity proper and vestibule
The masticatory mucosa on the gingiva and hard palate are made up of what kinds of epithelium?
Masticatory mucosa->keratinized and parakeratinized stratified squamos
What mucosa lines everywhere besides the gingiva, hard palate and tongue?
Lining mucose->stratified squamos and parakeratinized stratified squamos
where in the oral cavity do you find specialized (gustatory mucosa)?
on the tongue ( w/ papillae and taste buds on dorsal surface)
(blank) means that it is stratified squamos epithelium wihere the surface cells contain their nuclei.
parakeritinized
What kind of epithelium is the vermillion (lip)
parakeratinized
The lip consists of a (blank) core called the orbicularis oris. It is also highly (blank) and contains labial glands AKA (blank).
skeletal muscle
vascularized
minor salivary glands
How many deciduous teeth are there?
How many permanent?

What is enamel derived from?
What is dentin derived from?
ameloblasts-> ectoderm
odontoblasts-> neural crest cells
THe crown is above the gumline while the (blank) is below it. The gumline is referred to as the (blank)
root
neck
The tooth is embedded into bone via the (blank)
peridontal ligament and cementum
The pulp chamber contains (blank) and (blank) and continues from the root to the neck into the crown.
nerves and blood vessels
(blank) is made up of tubules.
dentin
The gingival sulcus is the area that is measured to see the depth of your teeth. As you get older your gingival sulcus (blank) and exposes dental tubules to everything you eat and drink.
increases
Does enamel regenerate?
no
The (blank) surface is on top and the (blank) surface is underneath
dorsal
ventral
The lingual frenulum is on the ventral surface of the tongue and is the (blank) that connects you tongue to the bottom of your mouth. On either side of the frenulum are the deep (blank) veins
flap of skin
lingual veins
On dorsal surface of tongue-> anterior 2/3rds will contain (blank) . The posterior 1/3rd is (blank). What separates these two portions of the tongue?
4 types of lingual papilla
lingual tonsil.
sulcus terminalis
Where type of papillae is found on the sulcus terminalis?
circumvallate papillae
The papillae on the dorsal surface on the tongue is mostly (blank) papillae which lack (blank) but are used to create friction and to scrape things. Found on the sides/margin of the tongue are mostly (blank) papilla (have taste buds). The third kind found on the dorsal side of the tongue is the (BLANK) papilla but they disappear so you find them mostly in newborns.
filliform, taste buds
fungiform
foliate
Taste buds are present on (blank), (blank) and (blank) papillae, and what three other places?
fungiform, foliate, circumvallate papillae
oral pharynx, soft palate, posterior surface of epiglottis
