Soft Palate, Pharynx, and Larynx; Development of the Face and Palate Oral Cavity, Soft Palate, Pharynx, and Larynx; Development of the Face and Palate Think on this…. The ability to eat and drink safely and efficiently is fundamental to our quality of life. The wide variety of food and liquid enjoyed each day requires precise management because of the shared function of the upper aerodigestive system. We seldom think about the freedom and joys experienced through such activities until they are lost or diminished. Oral Cavity Oral cavity – consists of: • Vestibule – space between teeth/gums and lips/cheeks • Oral cavity proper – space between dental arches Boundaries: • Roof – hard and soft palate • Floor – mylohyoid and geniohyoid • Laterally – cheeks • Anteriorly – lips • Posteriorly – palatoglossal folds Junction between oral cavity and oropharynx is the oropharyngeal (faucial) isthmus (PG folds, soft palate, sulcus terminalis). Contents • Teeth • Tongue • Sublingual/submandibular glands and ducts • Nerves, vessels, lymphatics Parotid Duct Opening, Ventral Surface of Tongue, and Floor of Mouth • Mucous membrane is of ventral surface of tongue and floor of mouth is thin – facilitates rapid absorption of drugs, e.g., nitroglycerin • Deep lingual artery and vein • Lingual nerve • Frenulum of tongue • Sublingual caruncle – opening of the submandibular (Wharton’s) duct; narrowest part of duct system – common site of stone (sialolith) impaction; unilateral pain/swelling at mealtime • Sublingual fold and duct openings Parts of the Tongue and Papillae The tongue consists of 2 parts (separated by the sulcus terminalis): (1) oral or horizontal part = anterior 2/3s of tongue; mucosa of dorsum is thick and contains papillae and taste buds (2) pharyngeal or vertical part = posterior 1/3; mucosa is thin, lacks papillae, and overlies lymphoid tissue=lingual tonsil). The pharyngeal part of the tongue actually represents the anterior wall of the oropharynx. Papillae Filiform papillae are numerous and give a velvety texture to the dorsum of the tongue. They contain no taste buds. Fungiform papillae (appear as bright red dots) are also numerous; circumvallate papillae (“donut looking”) appear in a single row in front of the terminal sulcus. Both fungiform and vallate papillae contain taste buds. Roof of Oral Cavity – Hard and Soft Palate Incisive foramen Hard palate consists of two parts: Primary palate a) Palatine processes of the maxilla – contains sockets for teeth b) Horizontal plate of the palatine bone c) Separates oral cavity from nasal cavities d) Is continuous posteriorly with the soft palate Maxilla Secondary palate Greater palatine foramen Lesser palatine foramen An intact hard palate is important in infants as it is used to create suction for drawing milk into the infant’s mouth. Palatal defects make suckling difficult. Horizontal plate of the palatine bone Roof of Oral Cavity – Nerve and Blood Supply Mucosal glands Nasopalatine n., Branches of maxillary nerve Sphenopalatine a. and artery that descend on the nasal septum before emerging through the incisive foramen. Supply area behind the incisor teeth. Greater palatine n.& a. – Branches of maxillary nerve and descending palatine artery that descend within the greater palatine canal to emerge through the greater palatine foramen. Supply principal portion of hard palate. Lesser palatine n.& a. – Supply soft palate. The mucoperiosteum of the palate is tightly bound to the hard palate and contains numerous mucous glands. Anteriorly, the mucosa contains several transverse palatine folds. Muscular Floor of the Oral Cavity Mylohyoid muscles: O. Mylohyoid line I. Median raphe and body of hyoid N. Nerve to mylohyoid Geniohyoid muscles: O. Inferior mental spine I. Body of hyoid N. C1 branches from CN XII Genio (G.) = “Chin” Mento (L.) Both muscles are suprahyoid muscles. When the jaw is closed by elevator muscles, the suprahyoids contract to elevate the floor of the mouth and tongue during swallowing. Extrinsic and Intrinsic Musculature of the Tongue Tongue: • Thick and muscular • Mobile • Involved with taste, breakdown of foodstuffs to a consistency safe to swallow • Speech Nerve Supply of the Tongue: Sensory, Motor, Taste Including circumvallate papillae Hypoglossal Nerve (CN XII) Lesion A 22-year-old man is brought to the emergency department because of a suprahyoid stab wound that extends from one side of the neck to the other. His tongue deviates to the right when protruded; there is no loss of sensory modality on the tongue. The injury most likely involves which of the following nerves? A. Left hypoglossal B. Right hypoglossal C. Right glossopharyngeal D. Right lingual E. Left vagus Osteology of the Mandible Edentulous Mandible Submandibular and Sublingual Salivary Glands Note the classic spiral relationship of the Submandibular (Wharton’s) lingual nerve to the submandibular duct. Sublingual duct gland Lingual n. Submandibular Mylohyoid m. ganglion Submandibular gland Geniohyoid m. Submandibular duct is narrowest at the sublingual caruncle, commonly the point of stone (sialolith) impaction. Parasympathetic nerve supply to submandibular and sublingual glands Blood Supply to Tongue Lingual artery: Passes deep to hyoglossus • Dorsal lingual a. – to posterior region of tongue • Deep lingula a. – enters ventral surface of tongue • Sublingual a. – supplies floor of mouth and sublingual gland Lymphatic Drainage of Lips and Tongue Soft Palate Torus tubarius Soft Palate • Fibromuscular; contains mucous glands • Mobile Torus • Attached to hard palate via a connective tissue levatorius palatine aponeurosis • Contains 5 prs of skeletal muscle (motor innervation: CN X, except TVP [CN V3]) Inferior concha • Depressed during chewing to keep foodstuffs in the oral cavity and maintain an open airway c • Elevated during swallowing to seal b LVP off nasopharynx from the oropharynx a Palatoglossal fold a = incisive canal b = palatine process of maxilla c = horizontal plate of palatine LVP = levator veli palatini = Opening of auditory tube Palatine tonsil Palatopharyngeal fold Muscles of the Soft Palate Muscle Origin Insertion Innervation Action Tensor veli palatini Scaphoid fossa Palatine aponeurosis Mandibular nerve Tenses soft palate (medial pterygoid (CN V3) and opens auditory plate), fibrous part of tube (during auditory tube swallowing, yawning) Levator veli palatini Cartilage of auditory Superior surface of Vagus nerve (CN X, Elevates soft palate tube, petrous palatine aponeurosis via pharyngeal portion of temporal plexus) bone Musculus uvulae Posterior nasal spine Connective tissue of Vagus nerve (CN X, Shortens and raises of hard palate uvula via pharyngeal uvula plexus) Palatoglossus Palatine aponeurosis Side of tongue Vagus nerve (CN X, Pulls soft palate onto via pharyngeal tongue plexus) Palatopharyngeus Palatine aponeurosis Pharyngeal wall Vagus nerve (CN X, Pulls pharyngeal wall via pharyngeal superiorly (elevates), plexus) anteriorly, and medially during swallowing Bony Landmarks Hamulus M P * P * MPP = Medial pterygoid plate * = Scaphoid fossa Opening of bony portion of auditory tube Pharyngeal tubercle Cartilaginous portion of auditory tube Soft Palate Muscles of the Soft Palate • Tensor veli palatini • Levator veli palatini • Palatopharyngeus • Musculus uvulae • Palatoglossus Lateral Pharyngeal Wall – mucosa removed Muscles of the Soft Palate • Tensor veli palatini • Levator veli palatini • Musculus uvulae • Palatoglossus • Palatopharyngeus Soft Palate – posterior view Pharynx Posterior pharyngeal wall covered by buccopharyngeal fascia • Cranial end of the foregut • Dual function – respiratory/digestive 3 Parts: • Funnel-shaped from posterior view • Nasopharynx – from tip of soft palate to base of skull • Related to skull base and cervical spine • Oropharynx – from tip of soft palate to tip of epiglottis • Lateral walls have “gaps” • Laryngopharynx – from tip of epiglottis to lower border • Anterior wall “missing” of cricoid cartilage • 3 Parts: Nasopharynx, oropharynx, laryngopharynx Features of the Lateral Pharyngeal Wall Nasopharynx • Torus tubarius; Salpingopharyngeal fold • Torus levatorius • Pharyngeal recess • Pharyngeal tonsil (midline) – Adenoids • Salpingopharyngeal fold Oropharynx • Palatoglossal fold/Anterior tonsillar pillar • Palatopharyngeal fold/Posterior tonsillar pillar • Palatine tonsil Laryngopharynx/Hypopharynx • Piriform recess or fossa Aryepiglottic fold Sensory innervation of the pharynx Oropharynx – as viewed from oral cavity Mucosal lining of oropharynx – when infected/inflamed = “pharyngitis” or sore throat; acute pharyngitis (e.g. strep throat, URI) is one of the frequent common causes of physician visits Posterior Pharyngeal Wall – view following disarticulation of head and cervical compartment from the cervical spine Retropharyngeal lymph nodes • Drain the nasopharynx, adenoids, middle ear, and auditory tube • Efferent channels to deep cervical chain of nodes • Infections from areas drained may overwhelm these nodes leading to abscess formation Retropharyngeal abscess • Most common in children between 2 and 4 yrs of age • Can occur at any age Interior of Pharynx- posterior wall opened Choanae Middle nasal concha Inferior nasal concha Nasal septum Soft palate Uvula Soft palate Palatine tonsil Tongue Palatine tonsil Median glossoepiglottic fold Vallecula Lateral glossoepiglottic fold Aditus of larynx Piriform recess Aryepiglottic fold * * Piriform recess Lamina of cricoid cartilage (beneath mucosa) Potential sites for lodgement of ingested foreign objects (e.g., fish bones) • Valleculae The palatoglossal arches and •

  • Selecting Different Approaches for Palate and Pharynx Surgery
    SPECIAL ISSUE 4: INVITED ARTICLE Selecting Different Approaches for Palate and Pharynx Surgery: Palatopharyngeal Arch Staging System Rodolfo Lugo-Saldaña1 , Karina Saldívar-Ponce2 , Irina González-Sáez3 , Daniela Hernández-Sirit4 , Patricia Mireles-García5 ABSTRACT The examination of the anatomical structures involved in the upper airway collapse in patients with the obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is a key for integrated evaluation of patients. Our proposal is for a noninvasive classification system that guides us about the presence of anatomical differences between the palatopharyngeal muscle (PFM). The functions of the PFM are narrowing the isthmus, descending the palate, and raising the larynx during swallowing; these characteristics give the PFM a special role in the collapse of the lateral pharyngeal wall. Complete knowledge of the anatomy and classification of different variants can guide us to choose the appropriate surgical procedures for the lateral wall collapse. Until now there is not a consensus about description of the trajectory or anatomical variants of the PFM into oropharynx, the distance between both muscles, and the muscle tone. Here we also present the relationship between the lateral wall surgeries currently available (lateral pharyngoplasty by Cahali, expansion sphincteroplasty by Pang, relocation pharyngoplasty by Li, Roman blinds pharyngoplasty by Mantovani, and barbed sutures pharyngoplasty by Vicini) with the proposed classification of the palatopharyngeal arch staging system (PASS).

  • Diseases of the Tonsil
    DISEASES OF THE TONSIL Dr. Amer salih aljibori Acute Tonsillitis: acute inflammatory condition of the faucial tonsil which may involve the mucosa, crypts,follicles and /or tonsillor parenchyma. Causatve agents; -Viral:Initially starts with viral infection then followed by secondary bacterial infection.Common viruses are influenza,parainfluenza.adenovirus and rhinovirus. -Bacterial:Streptococcus hemolyticus,Hemophilus influenza,pneumococcus,M.catarrahalis. Pathology and pathogenesis: Usually it starts in the childhood when there is low immune status.Depending on the progress of the disease,this can be classified further into the following types. •Catarrhal tonsillitis:It occurs due to viral infection of the upper respiratory tract involving the mucosa of the tonsil •Cryptic tonsillitis: Following viral infection ,secondary bacterial infection supervenes and gets entrapped within the crypts leading to localized form of infection •Acute follicular tonsillitis. It is sever form of tonsillitis caused by virulent organisms like streptococcus hemolyticus and Hemophilus. It causes spread of inflammation from tonsillar crypts to the surrounding tosillar follicles. Acute parenchymal tonsillitis: The secondary bacterial infection will invade to the crypts and it is rapidly spreads into the tonsillar parenchyma.. Cryptic tonsillitis 1- Symptoms -Fever -Generalized malaise and bodyache. -Odynophagia. -Dry cough. -Sorethroat. 2- Signs -Congested and oedematous tonsils -Tonsils may be diffusely swollen in parenchymatous tonsillitis. -Crypts filled with pus in follicular tonsillitis. -Membrane cover the tonsil and termed as membranous tonsillitis. -Tender enlarged jugulodigastric lymph nodes. -Signs of upper respiratory tract infection and adenoiditis. Investigations. -Throat swab for culture and sensitivity. -Blood smear to rule out hemopoeitic disorders like leukemia,agranulocytosis. -Paul-Bunnel test may be required if membrane seen to rulr out infectious mononucleosis.

  • Head and Neck
    DEFINITION OF ANATOMIC SITES WITHIN THE HEAD AND NECK adapted from the Summary Staging Guide 1977 published by the SEER Program, and the AJCC Cancer Staging Manual Fifth Edition published by the American Joint Committee on Cancer Staging. Note: Not all sites in the lip, oral cavity, pharynx and salivary glands are listed below. All sites to which a Summary Stage scheme applies are listed at the begining of the scheme. ORAL CAVITY AND ORAL PHARYNX (in ICD-O-3 sequence) The oral cavity extends from the skin-vermilion junction of the lips to the junction of the hard and soft palate above and to the line of circumvallate papillae below. The oral pharynx (oropharynx) is that portion of the continuity of the pharynx extending from the plane of the inferior surface of the soft palate to the plane of the superior surface of the hyoid bone (or floor of the vallecula) and includes the base of tongue, inferior surface of the soft palate and the uvula, the anterior and posterior tonsillar pillars, the glossotonsillar sulci, the pharyngeal tonsils, and the lateral and posterior walls. The oral cavity and oral pharynx are divided into the following specific areas: LIPS (C00._; vermilion surface, mucosal lip, labial mucosa) upper and lower, form the upper and lower anterior wall of the oral cavity. They consist of an exposed surface of modified epider- mis beginning at the junction of the vermilion border with the skin and including only the vermilion surface or that portion of the lip that comes into contact with the opposing lip.

  • The Oromaxillofacial Rehabilitation in Orthodontic-Surgical Protocols
    DOI: 10.1051/odfen/2015044 J Dentofacial Anom Orthod 2016;19:203 © The authors The oromaxillofacial rehabilitation in orthodontic-surgical protocols Th. Gouzland1,2, M. Fournier1 1 Kinesiologist, specializing in oromaxillofacial rehabilitation 2 Educator SUMMARY Oro-maxillo-facial rehabilitation is an ancient practice that has developed over recent years through research and integration with physiotherapists in multidisciplinary teams, as is the case with orthodontic- surgical procedures. At the same time, the progress made in orthognathic and orthodontic surgery over the last 20 years encourages more and more patients to undergo surgery. Preoperative treatment is based on early assessment and preparation for optimal surgical conditions to come up with a functional plan. A short stay in a hospital, focusing on rehabilitation, is recommended. During the postoperative phase, the key objectives are to ensure the muscles and arteries all function perfectly, acceptance of the new face, and the immediate correction of any orofacial dyspraxia that has occurred during myofunc- tional therapy. The various specialists in this multidisciplinary team must constantly be in communication. The importance of postoperative physiotherapy will be illustrated by a study consisting of 35 cases of maxillomandibular osteotomy with orthodontic preparation and monitoring. The purpose of this study is to show occurrence of suboccipital and cervical muscle tensions as well as masticatory muscles. Then we will be able to see the importance of these practices, the impact on recovery, the impact on posture and how best to treat. KEYWORDS Physiotherapy, orthognathic surgery, orthodontic, myofunctional therapy, muscles, posture INTRODUCTION The progress made in the techniques and comfortable recovery. This fits into and the results obtained by coupling the current social view where one’s orthognathic surgery with orthodontics image is given greater importance.
