Oral Cavity Flashcards
The dental arches subdivide oral cavity into ____
Vestibule and oral cavity proper
Vestibule contents
. U-shaped space located between lips/cheeks and teeth/gums
. Labial and buccal mucosa line lips/cheeks and teeth/gums
. Opening to parotid duct pierced buccinator m. And opens into vestibule opposite of M2 teeth
. Buccinator
. Orbicularis oris m.
. Gingivae
Oral cavity proper
. Space btw dental arched ant. And lat., palatoglossal folds post., palate sup., and muscular floor of mouth inf.
. Contains tongue, submandibular and sublingual glands and their ducts
Dental arches
Alveolar processes of maxilla and mandible
. House dentition
Deciduous dentition
. 1st teeth (lower central incisors) erupt at 6-8 mo
. Final teeth erupt 2024 mo
. Teeth and shed and replaced w. Adult teeth age 6-12
. 2 incisors, 1 canine, 2 molars per quadrant (20 teeth total)
. Molars important for maintaining spacing for adult dentition
. Deciduous molars replaced by adult premolars
Permanent dentition
. 1st tooth at 6 y/o
. Final teeth (3rd molars/wisdom teeth) at 1 y/o
. 2 incisors, 1 canine, 2 premolars (bicuspids), 3 molars (32 total)
Oral cavity cavity proper post. Boundary
. Palatoglossal folds border oropharyngeal isthmus
Oral cavity proper roof
. Palates covered by mucoperiosteum w/ mucous glands
. Hard palate: palatine processes of maxillary bones w/ incisive foramina ant. And horizontal plate of palatine bones w. Greater and lesser palatine foramina post.
. Soft palate: post. Extent of palate, has membranous aponeurosis, skeletal mm., and mucous membranes, continuous lat. w/ palatoglossal and palatopharyngeal arches
Oral cavity proper floor boundary
. Mylohyoid m.
. Geniohyoid m.
Mylohyoid OIAN
O: mylohyoid line
I: body of hyoid and fibers from opposite site to form median raphe
A: elevates hyoid and floor of mouth during swallowing
N: n. To mylohyoid
Geniohyoid m. OIAN
O: genial tubercle of mandible
I: body of hyoid bone
A: pulls hyoid sup.
N: Ca ventral ramus coursing w/ hypoglossal n.
Maxillary teeth and sinuses innervation
. Ant., and middle sup. Alveolar nn. Branch from infraorbital n. In infraorbital canal
. Post. Sup. Alveolar n. Splits from maxillary n. And enters infratemporal surface of maxilla
Maxillary labial and buccal gingivae and mucosa innervation
. Sup. Labial n.: branches from infraorbital n. At infraorbital foramen
. Post. Sup. Alveolar n.
Hard palate mucosa, palatal gingivae of maxillary dental arches innervation
. Nasopalatine n.: supplies ant. Palatal mucosa and gingivae, passes from nasal cavity through incisive
. Greater palatine n: supplies palatal mucosa gingivae, courses from greater palatine canal through greater palatine foramen
Soft palate mucosa innervation
. Lesser palatine n.: mucosa of soft palate, courses from greater palatine canal through greater foramen
. Branches of glossopharyngeal n.
Mandibular teeth innervation
. Inf. Alveolar n. Branches from mandibular n., courses inf. To lat. pterygoid m. And enters mandibular foramen
Lower lip, chin, labial gingivae and mucosa innervation
. Mental n.: ranches from inf. Alveolar n. W/in mandible and emerges from mental foramen
. Buccal n. (Long buccal n.)
Lingual gingivae and mucosa of Floor of mouth, plus mucous membranes of ant. 2/3rds of tongue innervation
. Lingual n. Courses lat. hyoglossus m.
Blood supply to maxillary teeth and sinuses
. Ant. And middle sup. Alveolar aa. Branch from the infraorbital a. In the infraorbital canal
. Post. Sup. Alveolar a.: splits from maxillary a. And enters infratemporal surface of maxilla
Hard palate, palatal gingivae, of maxillary dental arches blood supply
. Septal branches of sphenopalatine a. Pass from nasal cavity through incisive foramen
. Greater palatine a. Branches from descending palatine a. And courses from greater palatine canal through greater palatine foramen
Soft palate blood supply
. Lesser palatine a. Branches from descending palatine a. And courses from greater palatine canal through greater palatine foramen
Mandibular teeth blood supply
. Inf. Alveolar a. Branches from maxillary a. And courses inf. To the lat. pterygoid m. To enter mandibular foramen
