oral cavity Flashcards
what is the oral cavity
everything from the lips to the palatoglossal fold
location of the labial artery and vein
just deep to orbicularis oris near margins
why is the soft palate mobile
to aid in swallowing (no food, but still can breath
what does the palatoglossal fold overly
palatoglossus muscle
the portion of the soft palate that hangs down in the midline
uvula(made of the uvular muscle)
what makes up the soft palate
muscles that interdigitate from either side
what lies right under the palatal mucosa
palatine glands
what muscles interdigitate in the soft palate
palatoglossus m
levator veli palatini m
palatopharyngeus m
what creates the aponeurosis of the soft palate
tensor veli palatini m tendon that hooks under the pterygoid hamulus
roll of tensor veli palatini m
provides tension to the soft palate so other muscles can move it
whats more medial, levator veli palatini or tensor veli palatini m
levator veli palatini m
palatini muscles are assocated with what plate
medial pyterygoid plate
roll of levator veli palatini m
lift the soft palate
the descending palatine a gives rise to
greater and lesser palatine aa
where does the descending palatine a travel through
palatine canal
what does the greater palatine a supply
anterior palate passing through greater palatine foramen
what does the lesser palatine a supply
posterior palate passing through the lesser palatine foramen
the ascending palatine artery branches from
facial a
the palatine a braches from
ascending pharyngeal a
what is the vascular supply of the palte
descing palatine artery (greater and lesser palatine)
ascending palatine
palatine a
venous drainage of the palate
pterygoid and pharyngeal plexuses
sensory and para and sympa innervation of the palate
nasopalatine nerve
greater palatine nerve
Lesser palatine
mandibular n (CN V3) innervates what muscle of the palate
tesnor veli palatini
Vagus n (CN X) innervates what muscle of the palate
levator veli palatini mm Palatoglossus mm palatopharyngeus mm musculus uvula Salpingopharyngeous mm (Via pharyngeal plexus)
arteries for the palatine tonsils:
Tonsilar branches of: lesser palatine artery ascending pharygneal artery ascending palatine artery facial artery dosal lingual artery
bleeding from tonsillectomy may result from
from arteries and paratonsillar veins
