Lecture 13: Development of Orofacial Structures Flashcards
What does the viscerocranium become?
What is its embryological origin?
Facial skeleton
Mesenchyme
What does the neurocranium become?
What is its embryological origin?
Bones that enclose the brain
Mesenchyme
What bones form from the cartilagenous neurocranium?
- Occipital Bone
- Body of Sphenoid Bone
- Ethmoid Bone
- Petrous and mastoid parts of Temporal Bone
What bones arise from the membranous neurocranium?
Frontal and Parietal Bones
What bone initially begins as part of the viscerocranium and then migrates to become part of neurocranium?
Squamous Temporal bone
Male newborn patient presents with a long, narrow, wedge-shaped head.
What is the most likely diagnosis? This most likely results from premature closure of what suture?
Scaphocephaly
Sagittal suture
Male infant that has a high, tower-like head may have what disorder? From premature closure of what suture?
Brachycephaly
Coronal suture
An infant presenting with a twisted, asymmetric head may have what disorder? Due to premature closure of what suture?
Plagiocephaly
Coronal suture
A premature closure of the frontal (metopic) suture may result in what disorder? What bones does this affect?
Trigonocephaly
Frontal and Orbital bones
What is the facial primordia?
What makes up the facial primordia?
Tissue that surrounds stromodeum (primitive mouth)
- 2 Maxillary Prominences
- 2 Mandibular Prominences
- 1 Frontonasal Prominence
What separates the the facial primordia from the priomordial pharynx?
Oropharyngeal Membane
NOTE: wouldn’t be able to make O shape with mouth if membrane doesn’t go away/
In what weeks does facial development occur?
Weeks 4-8
What does the frontonasal prominence give rise to?
Fontal portion - Forehead
Nasal portion - rostral boundary of stomodeum and nose
What forms the maxillary (MXP) & mandibular (MDP) prominences
Splitting of PA1
What does the maxillary prominence form when PA1 splits?
Lateral boundaries of stomodeum
What does the Mandibular prominences form when PA1 splits
Caudual boundary of stomodeum
