Oral Cavity Flashcards
relationship of sublingual region
lingual n spirals around the submandibular duct
the duct will be above the lingual n in the floor of the mouth
parasympathetic inn to the sublingual gland
PRE - superior salivatory nucleus to facial n and chorda tympani to join with lingual before entering the submadibular ganglion
POST - submandibular ganglion to sublingual gland
sympathetic inn to the sublingual gland
POST - superior cervical ganglion to external carotid and facial plexus to the sublingual gland
anterior 2/3 of tongue
trigeminal n - GSA fibers (sensory)
facial n - SVA fibers (taste)
posterior 1/3 of tongue
glossopharyngeal - GSA and GVA (sensory and taste)
intrinsic mm of the tongue
derived from myotomes
GSE from hypoglossal n (motor)
extrinsic mm of the tongue
inn by hypoglossal n
paralysis of the tongue
unilateral hypoglossal palsy leads to fasciculations of intrinsic mm of the tongue
when a person sticks their tongue out it will deviated towards the side of the lesion
vessels and lymphatics of tongue
arterial supply - lingual a and profunda lingual a
venous drainage - lingual v to IJV or facial v
lymphatics - deep cervical lymph nodes
muscularis uvulae m
inn by vagus (X) via the pharyngeal plexus
tensor veli palatini m
inn by mandibular n (V)
tenses the soft palate and opens the auditory tube
levator veli palatini m
inn by vagus (X) by pharyngeal plexus
elevates the soft palate
paralysis of the tensor or levator palate
mm on the side of the non-paralyzed side to pull or deviate the uvula towards the normal side
greater palatine vessels and n
inn hard palate
lesser palatine vessels and n
inn soft palate
palatine tonsil
supplied by the tonsillar a and palatine branch of the ascending pharyngeal
glossopharyngeal n is closely related tot he floor of the tonsillar fossa
drains nto the tonsillar v (bleeder) to pharyngeal venous plexus to facial v
lymphatics drain to jugulodigastric nodes
ethmoidal bulla
boney eminence overlaying the middle ethmoidal air cells
hiatus semilunaris
contains the opening for the maxillary sinus
ethmoidal infundibulum
drain the anterior and ethmoidal sinuses
nasolacrimal duct
opening found in inferior meatus
sphenopalatine a
supplies the septum and lateral wall of the posterior one half of the nasal cavity
anterior and posterior ethmodial a
supply the anterior one half of the wall and septum
anterior ethmoidal n
inn the mucosa of the anterior 1/3 of the nasal cavity
pterygopalatine ganglion
inn the posterior two thirds of the nasal cavity
