Superficial Face Flashcards
Primordial Stomodeum
Future mouth. Facial structures begin to develop around here at weeks 4-8
Oropharyngeal Membrane
covered on the outside by ectoderm and on the inside by endoderm, separates the foregut from the amniotic cavity. The membrane will rupture around the end of the 4th week (26 days) allowing the amniotic fluid to pass into the pharynx
Frontonasal Prominence
Single/unpaired. Surrounds ventrolateral part of forebrain. Has a fronal and nasal part (if the name didn’t give it away…). Frontal portion forms the forehead. Nasal portion forms upper part of stomedium and nose.
Maxillary prominence
Dual/paired. Produced by the neural crest cells that migrate from the neural fold into the maxillary prominence. Form the lateral boundary of the stomodeum. Move medially to meet the paired prominence from the other side. Give rise to maxillary/palatine shelves.
Mandibular prominence
Produced by migration of the neural crest. Forms the caudal boundary of the primitive mouth (stomedium). Gives rise to the mandible and the lower lip
Nasal Placode
Nasal sac/pit, give rise to olfactory epithelium
Cleft Lip
a fissure or opening—a gap. It is the non-fusion of the body’s natural structures that form before birth. Feeding is distorted because suction cannot be generated
First Pharyngeal Arch
First pharyngeal arch developed in fetal life. Between stomodeum and first pharyngeal groove. Eventually evelops into: Muscles of mastication Mylohyoid m Anteior belly of digastric Tensor tympani Tensor veli palatini. Trigeminal nerve is the nerve of the first arch
Second Pharyngeal Arch
Eventually develops into muscles of facial expression, Stylohyoid, Posterior belly of digastric, Hyoid bone. Facial nerve is the nerve of the second arch
CNV
Trigeminal! Branches into Opthalmic, Maxillary, and Mandibular for innervation of superficial face
Opthalmic Division of CNV
Sensory of innervation of the forehead
Supraorbital Nerve
branch of opthalamic division of CNV, sensory to lateral forehead and upper eyelid
Supratrochlear Nerve
Branch of opthalamic division of CNV, sensory to medial forehead and upper eyelid
Infratrochlear Nerve
Branch of opthalamic division of CNV, Sensory to medial part of the eye and root of nose
Maxillary division of CNV
Sensory to the skin between the lower eyelid and the upper lip and the skin over the zygomatic bone and nose
Infraorbital Nerve
Branch of maxillary division of CNV, comes from below eyeball. Sensory to skin of the lower eyelid, cheek, lateral nose and upper lip, Sensory to skin over the anterior part of temporal fossa.
Mandibular Division of CNV
Sensory to the skin over the mandible. Splits to mental nerve, buccal nerve, and auriculotemporal nerve.
Mental Nerve
Branch of mandibular division of CNV. Sensory over the skin of chin and lower lip
Buccal Nerve (Long Buccal)
Branch of mandibular division of CNV. Sensory to the skin and the oral mucosa of the cheek
Auriculotemporal Nerve
Branch of mandibular division of CNV. Sensory to the scalp anterior to the ear and posterior part of the temporal fossa
Great auricular nerve
Branch of cervical plexus. Sensory to skin inferior to ear and over parotid gland.
