23
Q

sharpey’s fibers

A

collagen fibers embedded in the cementum or bone

24
Q

incisor teeth

A

grab food

25
Q

canines

A

hold the prey and lacerate flesh

26
Q

premolar and molar in carnivores

A
  • catching and holding prey
  • carnassial teeth (maxillary PM4, and manibular M1): cut skin and meat
  • mastication: molar grind food
27
Q

premolar and molar in horses and ruminants

A
  • ruminats do not have maxillary incisor teeth
  • all premolar and molar work as a functional unit - chew and grind food
28
Q

where are odontoblasts

A

in periphery of the pulp

29
Q

what is produced by odontoblasts that later mineralized to form dentin

A

predentin

30
Q

what type of mucosa is on the dorsal surface of the tongue

A

specialized mucosa

31
Q

what kind of mucosa is on the ventral surface of the tongue

A

non-keratinized epithelium

32
Q

conical papillae

A

mechanical and tactile

33
Q

filiform papillae

A

mechanical and tactile

34
Q

fungiform papillae

A

mushroom shape and taste buds

35
Q

vallate (circumvallate) papillae

A
  • 4-6
  • delimit oral cavity from oropharynx
  • taste buds
36
Q

foliate papillae

A
  • lateral surface of the tongue
  • taste buds
37
Q

lingual nerve

A

sensory 2/3 mucosa

38
Q

chorda tympani (facial nerve)

A

mechanoreceptor and thermoreceptor and taste

39
Q

glossopharyngeal nerve

A

caudal 1/3 tongue and taste

40
Q

hypoglossal nerve

A

motor nerve, innervates the musculature

41
Q

functions of tongue

A
  • food prehension
  • lap water
  • mastication
  • swallowing
42
Q

parotid salivary gland

A

serous secretions (high content in water and electrolytes and protein)

43
Q

sublingual, mandibular and zygomatic salivary gland

only carnivores

A

mixed secretions (serous and mucoid)

44
Q

how are salivary glands stimulated

A

stimulation of the preganglionic parasympathetic neurons of the facial and glossopharyngeal nerves by food or anticipation of food, chewing, and stimulation of the taste buds

45
Q

tubuloaccinar glands

A
  • secretion of the glandular epithelium is modified when is flowing through the ducts
  • rate of production of saliva affects the composition
46
Q

what are the components of saliva

A
  • water
  • electrolytes
  • proteins: amylase and lipasem lysozyme and lactoferrin
  • mucin
  • pH: 8.5-9
47
Q

what electrolytes are in saliva

A
  • sodium
  • bicarbonate
  • potassium
  • calcium
  • phosphorus
48
Q

what do electrolytes do in saliva

A
  • initial conc. similar to extracellular fluid
  • the sodium actively absorbed in ducts and potassium passively excreted in ducts, then chloride absorbed passively
  • high conc. of bicarbonate
49
Q

what happens when you chew longer

electrolytes

A

higher concentrations in bicarbonate to neutralize the acids

50
Q

what do ruminants have higher concentrations of

electrolytes

A

bicarbonate phosphate to neutralize acids from fermentation

51
Q

what are the functions of saliva

A
  • lubricate
  • protect
  • immunologic, antimicrobial, and cleansing
  • taste sensation and digestion
  • transportation of the food bolus
  • buffer

  • temporalis
  • pterygoid
  • innervated by trigeminal nerve
53
Q

A

digastricus
* rostral belly: trigeminal n
* caudal belly: facial n

54
Q

horses - temporomandibular joint and manibular movements
