Q

thicker than the superior mucous membrane. Lies posterior to the upper mucous membrane when view profile;

A

Inferior mucous membrane (lower lip)

18
Q

A

Weather line

19
Q

tiny prominence on the midline of the superior mucous membrane

A

Medial lobe

20
Q

line that forms between the 2 mucous membranes when the mouth is closed; where lips come in contact with each other;

A

Line of closure

21
Q

Boundaries

A
  • Labial Nasal Fold (Lateral )
  • Base of Nose (Superior )
  • Junction lower integumentary lip & chin (Inferior)
22
Q

Associated Facial Markings

A
  • Philtrum
  • Angulus oris sulcus
  • Vertical lines of mucous membrane
  • Labial sulci (furrow of age):
23
Q

vertical groove located on the superior integumentary lip; width form and depth are different from person to person

A

Philtrum

24
Q

groove at the end of the line of closure

A

Angulus oris sulcus

25
Q

fine vertical lines located on the mucous membrane

A

Vertical lines of mucous membrane

26
Q

vertical furrows on the lip extending from within the mucous membranes into the integumentary lips.

A

Labial sulci (furrow of age):

27
Q

Techniques for changing expression
• “Subtract or add filling material”; maybe too much cotton or mortuary putty in mouth
• “Loosen or tighten sutures” used to close mouth; too tight = wrinkles or folds in upper integumentary lip directly below nose; too loose = frown-like appearance with ends of mouth pointing down
• “Inject tissue builde”r in angulus oris eminences and/or nasolabial folds; give ends of mouth upward pointing position

A

Techniques for changing expression
• If mouth is stretched wide from sides due to manipulation, loss of muscle firmness, or gravity; the embalmer must make mouth appear shorter. Shortening can be accomplished by filling line of closure with wax to center of the eye. Facial cosmetics can hide wax. Lip coloring must be applied so it ends at center of eye.
• Lip cosmetics can be applied to mucous membrane of either lip appear fuller, narrower, wider, or shorter than it really is.
• If lips are not full, they can be made fuller through hypodermic injection of tissue builder.
• In some instances, just change lip color or amount used.

28
Q

Dental Prognathism (Buckteeth)

A

The dilemma facing the embalmer is whether to treat the lips in such a way as to bring them together to cover all the teeth or to allow some teeth to show. (family preference)

29
Q

Treatment for showing buck teeth:

A
  • Clean the teeth that will be visible. Abrasive toothpaste or even household cleaner and dried well afterwards
  • Some embalmers recommend painting visible teeth with clear nail polish to duplicate the appearance of moisture on natural teeth. Others against it.
  • Mouth is closed using normal suturing or injection needle in area that will be visible
  • Sections on lips you want close should be glued or sutured ensure stay closed
30
Q

Treatment for not showing buck teeth:
• Close the mouth using needle injector or sutures
• Treating the lips bring them together should be done before arterial injection cause more difficult after injection.
• Perforated mouth former can be used. Sharp perforation help keep the lips together
• In place of commercial mouth former, coarse sandpaper can be shape and used.
• Both lips stretched until they meet and glued or sutured to stay closed. Cotton can be placed under lower lip to bring it to level of superior lip.
• Cutting the upper and lower frenulum can be effective when stretching the lips
• Wet cotton slings applied both lips during embalming. Pressure of slings with help hold lips together

A

Treatment for not showing buck teeth:
• Some embalmers recommend using straight pins but not most practical method. Tissue can slip off pin and if going to put holes in lips usually be more effective to suture.
• Sutures can be placed across lips behind weather line. Soft lip wax can be used to cover any sutures.
• 1 of 2 most radical treatments is the dislocation of lower jaw. Not recommended because not easy to accomplish and once done it distorts normal appearance of face.
• 2nd radical treatment is extract relevant teeth. If family change mind to show teeth all extracted teeth must be secured back in place. The teeth can be forced back instead of removing them.
• It’s recommended massage cream be placed on lips both internally and externally to prevent dehydration and shrinkage during embalming. Lips will need to be very dry when adhesive is used.

31
Q

Absence of teeth

A
  • Close the mouth using injector needle or sutures. There is more chance of over-tightening the lips when teeth are missing. Will be apparent if horizontal folds or wrinkles appear on upper integumentary lip
  • Natural form and contour of mouth should be recreated using cotton or mortuary mastic
  • Commercial mouth former can be inserted over the putty or cotton
  • Lips can be glued shut by placing adhesive behind the weather line
32
Q

Cementing lips

A
  • Key to successfully cementing (gluing) lips closed is being sure lips are dry. If moist, adhesive will not stick
  • Apply cement behind weather line of lip. Some embalmers recommend applying to both lips and others only one lip
  • Allow few moments for glue to dry slightly before bring lips together
  • Bring lips together and hold few moments and then release
  • Excess cement can be removed using the proper solvent
33
Q

connects superior integumentary lip to moist membrane; (more wider and less red and thinner than lower lip)

A

Superior mucous membrane (upper lip)s

34
Q

contains two high peaks slightly off center on either side of a dipping curve and narrows laterally as it disappears before reaching the end of the line of closure;

A

Superior mucous membrane (upper lip)s

35
Q

connects inferior integumentary lip to moist membrane; (less wider and more red and thicker than upper lip)

A

Inferior mucous membrane (lower lip)

36
Q

its where the adhesive is applied to keep the lips closed.

A

Weather line

37
Q

located at the lower border of the upper teeth; has the shape of the classic hunting bow.

A

Line of closure
