        2. regions
          1. floor
            1. formed by the tongue and underlying U-shaped sublingual sulcus with muscular support provided by the mylohyoid and geniohyoid muscles
          2. roof
            1. formed by the palate
            2. palate

Q

describe the three phases of deglitition.

A

deglutition (swallowing)

  1. process that transfers a food bolus from the mouth through pharynx and esophagus into the stomach. solid food is masticated (chewed) and mixed with saliva to form a soft bolus that is easier to swallow.
  2. 3 stages
    1. stage 1- voluntary
      1. bolus is compressed against the palate and pushed from the mouth in to the oropharynx, mainly by the coordinated movements of muscles of the tongue and soft palate(ORAL PHASE)
    2. stage 2-involuntary and rapid
      1. soft palate is elevated sealing off the nasopharynx from tthe ororpharynx and laryngopharynx.
      2. the pharynx widens and shortens to receive the bolus as the suprahyoid muscles and the longitudinal pharyngeal muscles contract, elevating larynx (PHARYNGEAL PHASE)
    3. Stage 3-involuntary
      1. sequential contraction of all 3 pharyngeal constrictor muscles forces the food bolus inferioly into the esophagus and propelled by persistalsis into the stomach (ESOPHAGEAL PHASE)
  3. Disease
    1. Dysphagia
      1. difficulty swallowing
      2. usually caused by nerve or muscle problems
      3. may occur after
        1. a stroke
