Q

describe the structure of the mandible

A
  • Main part is called body
  • Inferior teeth are in it
  • In the side of the mandible, superiorly it has two different processes which are the coronoid process(this is a muscle attachment point) and the head(this forms the temporomandibular joint)
  • Neck is below the head, this is a narrow part of the bone
  • Ramus
  • When the ramus meets the body is an angle
  • Internally there is a mandibular foramen, and the nerve that supplies the inferior teeth runs through this mandibular foramen
  • Also have the mental foramen

23
Q

what muscles make up the muscles of mastication

A
  • Two major muscles are temporalis and masseter

- Two other muscles that are found on the internal aspect of the mandible and these are the lateral and medial pterygoid

24
Q

what is the role of the temporalis muscle of mastication

A
  • Elevation (anterior fibres of the temporalis) and retraction (posterior fibres of the temporalis) of the jaw
25
Q

what is the role of the masseter muscle of mastication

A
  • Elevation and protrusion

Lateral pterygoid

26
Q

what is the role of the lateral pterygoid muscle of mastication

A
  • Depression and protrusions

- Only muscle involved in depression, most of the depression is by gravity and relaxation of the muscle

27
Q

what is the role of the medial pterygoid muscle of mastication

A

muscle mirrors master on the internal aspect

28
Q

what are the three paired salivary glands

A

the Parotid gland
the Submandibular gland
the Sublingual gland.

29
Q

what innervates the parotid salivary gland

A

innervated by the Glossopharyngeal nerve

30
Q

where is the parotid salivary gland

A

enters the mouth at the level of the upper 2nd molar.

- the facial nerve runs through it but does not innervate it - facial nerve runs through the carotid duct

31
Q

what innervates the sublingual and submandibular glands

A

facial nerve

32
Q

where do the sublingual and submandibular glands drain

A
  • Submandibular gland – frenulum of the tongue is the bulge- lump either side of it where is the submandibular gland is
  • On the floor of the mouth is where the sublingual empties into the mouth
33
Q

what is the two groups of muscles that make up the tongue

A

intrinsic muscles and extrinsic muscles

- they are skeletal muscles, this is covered in a mucous membrane

34
Q

what innervates the intrinsic and extrinsic parts of the tongue

A

they both receive their motor nerve supply from the hypoglossal nerve

35
Q

what does the intrinsic muscle of the tongue do

A

involved in changing the shape of the tongue

36
Q

what does the extrinsic muscles of the tongue do

A

change the position of the tongue

37
Q

intrinsic is on top of …

A

of the extrinsic muscle in the tongue

38
Q

what is the two parts of the tongue decided by

A
  • you have the anterior 2/3 and posterior 1/3

- towards the back of the tongue there is a V shaped line where the taste buds are enlarged

39
Q

what is the two types of sensory supply to the tongue

A

they have special sensory nerves that relay taste and general sensory supply this is being able to sense pain temperature and touch (normal sensory supply)

40
Q

what does the special sensory nerves do in the tongue

A
  • they relay taste
41
Q

what does the general sensory supply do in the tongue

A
  • they are able to sense pain, temperature and touch
42
Q

what is the sensory innervation of the anterior2/3 of the tongue

A
  • Anterior 2/3 – special sensory is chorda tympani (facial) and general sensory is lingual nerve (V3 trigeminal nerve )
43
Q

what is the sensory innervation of the posterior 1/3 of the tongue

A
  • Posterior 1/3 the special and general sensory are glossopharyngeal
44
Q

what makes up the hard palate

A
  • The hard palate is composed of the maxilla and palatine bones this forms the roof of the mouth
45
Q

what make sup the soft palate

A

soft palate is composed of muscles covered by mucous membrane.

46
Q

where is the soft palate in relation to the hard palate

A

the soft palate is posterior to the hard palate

47
Q

what is the function of the soft palate

A

The soft palate elevates during swallowing to prevent food entering the nasal cavity.

48
Q

what is the soft palate innervated by

A

the vagus nerve

49
Q

describe the parts that make up the soft palate

A
  • The uvula is the part that hangs down in the mouth
  • there are two arches called the palatoglossal arch and palatopharyngeal arch on either side
  • in-between the two arches there is tissue this is called the palatine tonsil
50
Q

describe the divisions of the pharynx

A
  • Divided into three parts these are the nasopharynx (top of nasal cavity to the tip of the uvula), oropharynx(tipe of the uvula to the epiglottis) and laryngopharynx (tip of epiglottis to start of larynx)
51
Q

describe the innervation of the pharynx

A

from the glosophrayngeal nerve

52
Q

what does the pharynx do

A
  • Connects the nasal cavity to the oral cavity and to the larynx
53
Q

describe the wall of the pharynx

A
  • C shaped muscles called the constrictor muscles
  • There are 3 – superior, middle and inferior constrictor muscles they are all innervated by the Vagus nerve
  • Stylopharngenous - Elevates the pharynx during swallowing and is innervated by the Glossopharyngeal nerve
54
Q

what are the 3 constrictor muscles innervated by

A

the vagus nerve

55
Q

what does the stylopharyngenous nerve do and what is it innervated by

A

Elevates the pharynx during swallowing and is innervated by the Glossopharyngeal nerve

56
Q

describe how the gag reflux works

A
  • The gag reflex is a response to touching the posterior pharyngeal wall (sensory) (Glossopharyngeal nerve) and involves a brisk and brief elevation of the soft palate and contraction of pharyngeal muscles (motor) (Vagus nerve).
