Orofacial Morphogenesis (Exam 1) Flashcards
What two Adult facial features come from the first PA?
- Mandibular region
2. Maxillary region
Which adult facial region is not derived from an arch
Frontonasal region
The checks, upper jaw, upper lip, secondary palate are derived from:
1st PA
The lower jaw, lower lip are derived from:
1st PA
What is the Intermaxillary segment composed of?
Philtrum of lip; Primary palate (premaxilla bone)
The epiglottis is derived from the:
4th PA
The Cricoid cartilage is derived from:
6th PA
The secondary Palate is derived from the:
Palatine bone
The Primary palate is derived from:
Premaxilla
What is the conchae?
Increases air circulation: Is an internal structure from the lateral inside wall
Are bones covered with nasal mucosa. Increases surface area:
Superior and middle conchae are downward extensions of the ethmoid bone
Inferior concha: attaches to maxilla (1st arch)
What is the Nasal septum?
Medial wall: It is part of the anatomical boundaries of the nasal cavity. It runs from roof to floor and divides cavity into two chambers
Comprised of:
- Septal cartilage (SC)
- Perpendicular palate of ethmoid bone (PPE)
- Vomer Bone (VR) ** different embryonic origin (1st Arch)
What is a Meatuses?
Opening below each concha; serves as a connection between nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses
What forms the floor of the nasal cavity?
Formed by the palate and soft palate
What forms the roof of the nasal cavity?
Cribrifomr plate of the ethmoid bone, lined with olfactory epithelium (Ethmoid bone is key to nose)
What are the openings of the Nasal cavity?
Anterior: Nares (Nostrils) = anterior aperture
Posterior: Choana= posterior aperture/opening of nasal cavity leading to nasopharynx and auditory tube
Which part of the nose originates from Ectomesenchyme? (Hint: Two)
- Frontonasal Process/prominence (FNP): (Ectomesenchyme -> Forebrain)
- Anterior cranial base/ Cartilaginous nasal capsule-
Which part of the nose originates from Ectoderm?
- Nasal sensory placode (thickening) -> Nasal pit (depression)
What will ossify to form the Ethmoid bone?
Cartilaginous anterior cranial base = floor of skull that supports the forebrain will ossify to form the ethmoid bone
