quiz on oral mucosa Flashcards
does oral mucosa line the oral cavity?
yes almost continuously
oral cavity composed of
stratified squamous separated from ct by basement membrane
three main types of mucosa found in oral cavity
lining, masticatory, and specialized mucosa
oral epithelium is
nonkeratinized, parakerantinized or orthokeratinized
many lining tissues, is the most common
nonkeratinized
nonkeratinized consists of
stratum basal or basal layer
s intermedium or intermediate layer
s superficiale or superficial layer
hard palate and attached gingiva, some papilla
orthokeratinized
orthokeratinized layers
basal layer
prickle layer or s spinosa
granular layer
keratin layer or s corneum- no nuclei
attached gingiva, papilla, and dorsum of tongue
parakeratinized
layers of parakeratinized
basal layer
prickle layer
granular layer
keratin layer or s corneum- cells contain nuclei
top layer closest to epithelium- lamina lucida and lamina densa
basal lamina
bottom layer closest to ct
reticular lamina
under the specific epithelial layer lies the
basement membrane
loose ct under the lamina propria and contains many glands
submucosa
in oral mucosa, epithelial cells attach by
macula adherens (desmosomes)
temporary adhesions so cells can cont to migrate superficially
macula adherens
all lining tissues have nonkeratinized epithelium, lamina propria, and a submucosa; soft and pliable
lining mucosa
inner lips
vermilion border
fordyce spots on buccal mucosa, sebaceous glands
submucosa of floor of mouth is loosely attached to the what (lining )
underlying bone
major salivary gland in floor of mouth for lining
sublingual gland
areas that consist of lining mucosa
inner lips soft palate cheeks ventral surface of tongue floor of mouth alveolar mucosa
areas that consist of masticatory mucosa
attached gingiva
hard palate
attached gingiva is mostly
parakeratinized
attached to the neck of tooth by junctional epithelium; strippled tissue; free gingival groove separates attached and free gingiva
attached gingiva
roof of mouth, immobile
hard palate
in hard palate there is no what in the midline area
submucosa
in hard palate, because submucosa is not present in midline area, the lamina propria binds directly to
bone(median raphae)
lamina propria in hard palate serves as a
mucoperiosteum
posterior hard palate has
mucous glands
anterior lateral hard palate has
adipose tissue
ridges with a dense lamina propria
rugae
