Cards

Term
Describe the stages of palatal development.
Definition

primary palate - seperates nasal and oral cavity. small anterior portion of hard palate.

secondary palate - 2 palatal shelves inferiorly grow then vertically - posterior 2/3 of palate max canines and posterior teeth.

completion of palate - secondary palate meets primary and 3 fuse

Term
what is the difference between primary and secondary palate? gives rise to?
Definition
primary is anterior section - Premaxillary segment 1/3 portion of maxilla, secondary is back half - posterior 2/3 of hard palate - maxillary canine and posterior support. soft palate and uvula  
Term
Explain the completion of the palate?
Definition
fusion between 1st and 2ndary palate fuse seperating nasal and oral cavity.
Term
What are the developmental disturbances with the formation of the palate and related tissue.
Definition
cleft palate (failure of fusion of the palatal shelves) and uvula.
Term
Describe the formation of the nasal cavity and septum
Definition
septum fuses with medial nasal processes which forms to palate creating a nasal cavity and fused septum
Term
What does the tongue develop from and when?
Definition
4-8th weeks - from independent swellings located internally on the floor of the primitive pharynx, formed by first 4 branchial arches
Term
Explain the development of the body of the tongue.
Definition
triangular medium swelling called tuberculum impar. (medium tongue bud)then lateral lingual swellings grow over and fuse and the impar disappears
Term
Explain the development of the base of the tongue
Definition
pair of swellings called the copula, formed from messenchyme coming from 4th arch, overgrows 2nd arch to form base of tongue. Posteriorly a 3rd swelling (epiglottic) forms posterior region and epiglottis
Term
How does tongue formation become complete?
Definition
Tongue base and body fuse (lateral lingual swellings, copula, epiglottic) Tongue contracts and moves inferiorly and anteriorly so that the palatal shelves are not in the way.
Term
Tongue Timeline
Definition

4- 8 weeks Body: tuberculum impar and lateral swellings Base: copula overgrowing 2nd branchial arches

8th week: tongue: mergingof anterior swellings of the body and copula of the base

Term
How do intrinsic muscles, lingual papillae, and taste buds develop?
Definition

1. primitive muscle cells migrate into developing tongue taking there motor supply 12 cranial nerve with. (mesoderm occipital somites)

2. appear end of eigth week - 11th week (fetal period)

3. 11-13th week inductive interaction between epithelial cells of tongue and nerve cells

Term
Developmental disturbances in tongue?
Definition
Ankyloglossia - short lingual frenum
