It gives off several branches that innervate structures like the nasal cavity, palate, and pharynx.
This document discusses the development of the face, palate, and jaws from early embryogenesis through formation of structures. It begins with an overview of embryology concepts like fertilization and formation of the bilaminar disc. Key structures that form include the pharyngeal arches which give rise to facial structures, and outpocketings that form the palate. Facial prominences like the frontonasal and mandibular swellings fuse to form the basic facial morphology. Derivations of specific facial structures are described in detail. Palatogenesis involves growth of palatal shelves which fuse in the midline.
The document describes the anatomy and variations of veins in the head and neck region. It notes that the main venous drainage from the face is through the superficial facial vein which joins the retromandibular vein. The retromandibular vein then divides into anterior and posterior divisions, with the anterior joining the facial vein and posterior forming the external jugular vein. The external jugular vein drains into the subclavian vein. The document also describes variations seen in 6 out of 35 specimens studied, where the retromandibular veins did not divide and the common facial vein drained directly into the subclavian vein without forming an external jugular vein.

The palate develops from several processes between the 6th and 8th weeks of development. Initially, the primary palate forms the floor of the nasal pits from the merging of the median nasal processes. Later, the secondary palate forms through the fusion of the bilateral maxillary processes and medial nasal process. The lateral palatine processes grow medially from the maxillary tissues and fuse together along with the nasal septum to form the hard and soft palates. Clefts of the palate can result from non-fusion of the palatine processes and nasal septum.
Face develops in humans between 4th – 10th week of intrauterine life.

Differiential diagnosis of maxillary sinus pathologyShiji Antony
This document discusses pathology of the maxillary sinus, including classification, etiology, pathogenesis, clinical features, radiological features, diagnosis, and treatment of various conditions. It covers inflammatory diseases like acute and chronic sinusitis, mucositis, and antral polyps. It also discusses cysts, neoplasms, developmental disorders, traumatic injuries, and complications of maxillary sinus pathology. Differential diagnosis of maxillary sinus conditions is based on clinical history and examination findings, as well as radiological imaging like radiographs, CT scans.
The four main muscles of mastication are the masseter, temporalis, lateral pterygoid, and medial pterygoid muscles. These muscles work together to power the chewing cycle which involves three phases - opening, closing, and occlusion. The masseter elevates the jaw, the temporalis elevates and retracts the jaw, the lateral pterygoid depresses, protrudes and moves the jaw side to side, and the medial pterygoid elevates and protracts the jaw. A fifth muscle, the sphenomandibular muscle, is also sometimes included as it runs medial to the temporomandibular joint.

Anatomy of tongue & its applied aspectsAnchal Mehra
The tongue develops from the first, second, third and fourth branchial arches. It has intrinsic and extrinsic muscles that allow it to move and perform functions like speech, taste and swallowing. The tongue's surface has various papillae that contain taste buds. The tongue has implications in areas like speech pathology, surgery, oncology and more. Conditions and lesions of the tongue can provide clinical insights.
The tongue is a muscular organ in the mouth involved in tasting, speaking, chewing, and swallowing. It has a root that attaches to bones below, a tip, and a body with an upper and lower surface. The upper surface contains papillae that give it a bumpy texture and are associated with different tastes. The tongue contains intrinsic muscles that alter its shape and extrinsic muscles that connect it to other structures. It is supplied by nerves and blood vessels. Abnormalities can involve its size, attachments, or surface features and affect functions like speech.
The tongue is a muscular organ in the mouth that aids in tasting, speaking, chewing, and swallowing. It has intrinsic and extrinsic muscles that allow it to move and change shape. The tongue's surface contains papillae that give it a rough texture and help with taste. The root of the tongue attaches to bones in the mouth, while the tip is free. Sensory nerves allow the tongue to detect different tastes across its surface.
The tongue is a muscular structure located in the oral cavity. It has an anterior oral part and a posterior pharyngeal part separated by a V-shaped sulcus. The superior surface of the oral part contains various papillae (filiform, fungiform, vallate, foliate) involved with taste and texture. Intrinsic muscles alter tongue shape while extrinsic muscles (genioglossus, hyoglossus, styloglossus, palatoglossus) protrude, retract, depress and elevate it. The lingual artery and veins supply blood, and the hypoglossal, lingual, glossopharyngeal and facial nerves provide innervation and sensory function.

The oral cavity has walls, a roof, and floor that form its boundaries. It has two openings - the oral fissure anteriorly and the oropharyngeal isthmus posteriorly. The oral cavity is separated into the oral vestibule and oral cavity proper by the upper and lower dental arches. The walls include the cheeks, which are made of skin, muscle and oral mucosa. The floor is formed by the mylohyoid and geniohyoid muscles and the tongue. The tongue has various papillae and is composed of intrinsic and extrinsic muscles that aid in movement and functions like speech and swallowing. Blood vessels like the lingual artery supply the tongue.
The document provides an overview of the anatomy of the oral cavity, including structures like the palate, tongue, floor of the mouth, and associated glands and muscles. Key points covered include the different regions of the palate, the papillae and tissues of the tongue, muscles like the mylohyoid that form the floor of the mouth, and lymphatic drainage patterns from structures in the oral cavity. The summary describes the major anatomical structures and features discussed in the document in 3 sentences or less.
The oral cavity contains several important structures including the palate, tongue, floor of the mouth, and salivary glands. The palate separates the oral and nasal cavities. The tongue aids in swallowing, speech, and taste. The floor of the mouth contains the mylohyoid muscle and several salivary glands - the submandibular, sublingual, and parotid glands - which secrete saliva to aid digestion and speech. Lymphatic drainage of the oral structures drains to cervical lymph nodes.
The document discusses the anatomy and histology of the tongue. It begins by defining the tongue as a muscular organ involved in tasting, swallowing, and speech. It then describes the external features, divisions, muscles, blood supply, innervation, and histology of the tongue. The major papilla types are also outlined, including their locations and functions. In summary, the document provides a comprehensive overview of the gross and microscopic anatomy of the human tongue.
The tongue is a muscular organ located in the floor of the mouth. It has several functions including taste, speech, mastication, and deglutition. The tongue has four parts - the root, tip, body, and dorsum. It is made up of intrinsic and extrinsic muscles that allow for movements like protrusion and retraction. The tongue has a blood supply from the lingual artery and nerve supply from the hypoglossal nerve.
1) The tongue is a muscular organ located in the oral cavity that has roles in taste, speech, chewing, swallowing, and mouth cleansing. It contains both intrinsic and extrinsic muscles.
2) The tongue has several parts including the root, tip, body, and dorsum. The dorsum has oral and pharyngeal parts that differ in structure and function. It is covered in papillae that give it a rough texture and aid in taste.
3) The tongue receives its motor innervation mainly from the hypoglossal nerve and sensory innervation from the lingual, chorda tympani, and glossopharyngeal nerves. Its blood supply is from the lingual artery and it
Local anesthesia complications are rare but can occur. The most common complications are accidental puncture or laceration of surrounding structures, including blood vessels and nerves. While serious complications are very uncommon, signs of potential complications from local anesthesia should be monitored and addressed promptly if they occur.
This document provides an overview of salivary gland anatomy, physiology, disorders, and diagnostic modalities. It discusses the three major salivary glands - parotid, submandibular, and sublingual glands. Common salivary gland disorders are classified and diagnostic tools such as sialography, flow rate studies, sialoendoscopy, and imaging modalities like CT, MRI, radioisotope imaging are described.

Bleeding control and procedures for each component of the primary survey are also described.
Osteomyelitis is an inflammatory condition of bone that involves the medullary cavity and has a tendency to progress along this space and involve the adjacent cortex, periosteum, and soft tissue. It is commonly caused by odontogenic infections or trauma. Staphylococcus aureus accounts for 80% of jaw osteomyelitis cases. The infection initiates from a contiguous focus or hematogenous spread and causes inflammation, tissue necrosis, pus formation, and bone destruction if not properly treated. Without treatment, it can progress to chronic stages involving bone lysis, sequestrum formation, and involucrum development.
The document discusses the importance of preoperative evaluation and optimization of patient health before surgery. The key purposes are to document medical conditions requiring surgery, assess overall health status, uncover hidden conditions that could cause problems during or after surgery, determine perioperative risk, and develop an appropriate perioperative care plan. This involves a thorough medical history, physical exam, and laboratory tests to evaluate organ function and minimize surgical risks. The goal is to reduce postoperative complications and facilitate a quick recovery.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

40. The chief blood supply of the tongue is derived
from the lingual artery
On each side, the lingual artery originates from the
external carotid artery in the neck adjacent to the tip
of the greater horn of the hyoid bone. It forms an
upward bend and then loops downward and
forward to pass deep to the hyoglossus muscle, and
accompanies the muscle through the aperture
formed by the margins of the mylohyoid, superior
constrictor, and middle constrictor muscles, and
enters the floor of the oral cavity.
The lingual artery then travels forward in the plane
between the hyoglossus and genioglossus muscles to
the apex of the tongue.
In addition to the tongue, the lingual artery supplies
the sublingual gland, gingiva, and oral mucosa in the
floor of the oral cavity.
ARTERIAL SUPPLY OF THE
TONGUE
41. Its origin is just caudal to the posterior
belly of digastric and the angle of
mandible. As it passes anteriorly it gives
off a tonsillar branch. The lingual artery
than travels deep to the posterior part of
the digastric tendon. It leaves the
submandibular triangle and passes
deep to the posterior border of the
hyoglossus muscle where it gives off a
small suprahyoid branch. Once caudal to
the hyoglossus muscle, the lingual artery
gives off the dorsal lingual artery, which
supplies the dorsum of tongue, vallecula,
epiglottis, and adjacent soft palate. The
ravine branch unites both dorsal lingual
arteries at the tip and provides a rich
plexus.
LINGUAL ARTERY
42. Once the lingual artery reaches the anterior edge of the hyoglossus muscles, it
divides in its terminal branch – the sublingual and the deep lingual artery. The
sublingual artery travels along the genioglossus and the sublingual gland and has an
extension anastomotic network with the contralateral sublingual artery. It supplies
the sublingual gland, the mylohyoid muscle and adjacent musculature. The deep
lingual artery courses anteriorly, deep to ventral mucosa. It gives off multiple
branches that ascend toward the dorsum of the tongue. Communication between
bilateral deep lingual arteries is seen posteriorly through the transverse lingual
artery as well as at the tip where the deep lingual arteries anastomose.
43. Venous tributaries accompanying the
lingual artery and its dorsal branches
forms the lingual vein. The venous return
from the lip is by the deep lingual veins,
visible on the each side of the midline on
the undersurface. It runs back superficial
to hyoglossus and is joined at the anterior
of hyoglossus by the sublingual vein to
form the vena comitans. It continuous
backwards close to the nerve and has a
variable ending, joining either the lingual,
facial or internal jugular veins. The lingual
vein usually joins the internal jugular vein
near the greater horn of the hyoid bone.
VENOUS DRAINAGE
44. LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE
Tip of tongue- Submental Nodes
Anterior 2/3rd – Submandibular Nodes
Posterior 1/3rd – Juglo-omohyoid Nodes
Posterior most - Upper Deep Cervical Lymph Nodes
45. A significant feature of the tongues lymph drainage, which is through the
floor of the mouth or pharyngeal wall, is that lymph from one side, especially
of the posterior part, may reach nodes of both sides of the neck. The tip may
drain to submental nodes or directly to deep cervical nodes.
Marginal lymphatics from the rest of the anterior part tend to drain to
ipsilateral submandibular nodes and ten or sometimes directly, to deep cervical
nodes. Central lymphatics from the anterior part descend between the
genioglossi and drain to deep cervical nodes of either side. The posterior part
drains directly and frequently bilaterally to deep cervical nodes. The deep
cervical nodes usually involved are the jugulodigastric and jugulo-omohyoid
nodes. All lymph from the tongue is believed to eventually drain through the
jugulo-omohyoid node before reaching the thoracic duct or right lymphatic
duct.
47. Sensory supply:
From anterior two-thirds :
General sense, by the lingual nerve, special sense for taste except vallate
papillae, by the chorda tympani nerve.
From posterior one-third, inducing Vallate papillae:
Supplied by glossopharyngeal nerve, which convey both general and special
senses.
From the vallecula:
Supplied by the internal laryngeal branch of the superior laryngeal nerve from
the vagus.
48. Taste (SA) and general sensation from the
pharyngeal part of the tongue are carried by the
glossopharyngeal nerve [IX].
The glossopharyngeal nerve [IX] leaves the skull
through the jugular foramen and descends along
the posterior surface of the stylopharyngeus
muscle. It passes around the lateral surface of
the stylopharyngeus and then slips through the
posterior aspect of the gap between the superior
constrictor, middle constrictor, and mylohyoid
muscles. The nerve then passes forward on the
oropharyngeal wall just below the inferior pole
of the palatine tonsil and enters the pharyngeal
part of the tongue deep to the styloglossus and
hyoglossus muscles. In addition to taste and
general sensation on the posterior one-third of
the tongue, branches creep anterior to the
terminal sulcus of tongue to carry taste (SA) and
general sensation from the vallate papillae.
GLOSSOPHARYNGEAL NERVE
49. General sensory innervation from the anterior two-thirds or
oral part of the tongue is carried by the lingual nerve, which
is a major branch of the mandibular nerve [V3]. It
originates in the infratemporal fossa and passes anteriorly
into the floor of the oral cavity by passing through the gap
between the mylohyoid, superior constrictor, and middle
constrictor muscles). As it travels through the gap, it passes
immediately inferior to the attachment of superior
constrictor to the mandible and continues forward on the
medial surface of the mandible adjacent to the last molar
tooth and deep to the gingiva. In this position, the nerve
can be palpated against the bone by placing a finger into the
oral cavity.
The lingual nerve then continues anteromedially across the
floor of the oral cavity, loops under the submandibular
duct, and ascends into the tongue on the external and
superior surface of the hyoglossus muscle.
In addition to general sensation from the oral part of the
tongue, the lingual nerve also carries general sensation from
the mucosa on the floor of the oral cavity and gingiva
associated with the lower teeth. The lingual nerve also
carries parasympathetic and taste fibers from the oral part
of the tongue that are part of the facial nerve [VII].
LINGUAL NERVE
50. The hypoglossal nerve [XII] leaves the skull through
the hypoglossal canal and descends almost vertically
in the neck to a level just below the angle of
mandible (Here it angles sharply forward around the
sternocleidomastoid branch of the occipital artery,
crosses the external carotid artery, and continues
forward, crossing the loop of the lingual artery, to
reach the external surface of the lower one-third of
the hyoglossus muscle.
The hypoglossal nerve [XII] follows the hyoglossus
muscle through the gap between the superior
constrictor, middle constrictor, and mylohyoid
muscles to reach the tongue.
In the upper neck, a branch from the anterior ramus
of C1 joins the hypoglossal nerve [XII]. Most of
these C1 fibers leave the hypoglossal nerve [XII] as
the superior root of the ansa cervicalis (Fig. 8.251).
Near the posterior border of the hyoglossus muscle,
the remaining fibers leave the hypoglossal nerve
[XII] and form two nerves:
the thyrohyoid branch, which remains in the neck to
innervate the thyrohyoid muscle;
the branch to the geniohyoid, which passes into the
floor of the oral cavity to innervate the geniohyoid.
HYPOGLOSSAL NERVE
51. Taste from the oral part of the
tongue is carried into the central
nervous system by the facial nerve .
Special sensory fibers of the facial
nerve leave the tongue and oral cavity
as part of the lingual nerve. The
fibers then enter the chorda tympani
nerve, which is a branch of the facial
nerve that joins the lingual nerve in
the infratemporal fossa
52. Motor supply:
Somatomotor:
The twelfth cranial nerve supplies the extrinsic and intrinsic musculature of
the tongue except the palatoglossus, being essentially a palate muscle, is
supplied by the pharyngeal plexus.
Secretomotor: To the anterior lingual glands
Pre ganglionic fibers arise from the superior salivatory nucleus and pass through the facial, chorda
tympani and lingual nerves, and are relayed into submandibular ganglion. Post ganglionic fibers reach
the gland via the lingual nerve.
Vasomotor: These are derived from the sympathetic nerves which surround the lingual
artery and convey post ganglionic fibers from the superior cervical ganglion of the
sympathetic trunk.

56. TONGUE FLAPS
The tongue is an excellent donor site for soft tissue oral reconstruction mainly
because of its abundant vascularity and the low morbidity associated with its
use.
The tongue flap tissue does become reinnervated from the adjacent host tissues, The tongue can
provide 90-100cm2 of mucosal surface for rotation.
An excellent axial and collateral circulation provides for flap viability.
Half of the tongue can be rotated for tissue coverage without compromising speech, mastication or
deglutition, as long as large piece of anterior tongue is preserved.
Because of its rich blood supply, the tongue can also be used in patients who have been irradiation.
APPLIED ASPECTS
57. Significance of vasculature in various designs of tongue flap:
There are varieties of tongue flaps and all rely on the excellent blood
supply. Four arterial vessels supply most of the tongue:
i) The super hyoid artery, which runs superior to the hyoid bone and
supplies the muscles attached to it.
ii) The dorsalis lingual artery, which supplies the posterior third of the
tongue.
iii) The sublingual artery, one of the two terminal branches which emerge
deep to the hyoglossus muscle to supply the floor of the mouth and sublingual
gland.
iv) The deep lingual artery, which is larger of the terminal branches and
passes to the tongue tip giving numerous branches.
The lingual artery is the main vessel supplying the tongue. Anastomotic
connections between the terminal lingual artery. The facial artery and tonsillar
branch of the palatine artery are present.
58. - In the posterior region of the tongue, the dorsal lingual branch of the lingual artery has a
submucosal connection with its contralateral dorsal lingual artery.
- The lateral portion of the tongue receives blood from branches of sublingual artery, which arises
at the anterior border of by hypoglossal muscle as a branch of the lingual artery.
- The sublingual artery connects with the submental artery, a branch of facial artery, and supplies
the lateral part of the tongue.
- Submucosal connections exist between the right and left submental arteries.
- The deep lingual artery gives off the ranine branch with it contralateral terminal connections
supplying the mobile portions of the tongue.
- The middle fibrous septum present an abundant interchange between the right and left side
vessels, but a few branches do cross the fibrous septum to provide contralateral perfusion and rich
anastomoses between these vessels.
- There are vascular arcades which often perforate the midline of the tongue
These observations and the successful clinical results indicate that midline tongue flaps can be used
successfully.
• Dorsal based tongue flaps get most of their vascular supply from an intact lingual artery. The rich
collateral circulation of the tongue prevents tongue flap death as long as the base of the flap and its design
allow for distal collateral circulation fall-off at the distal aspect of the flap.
• Lateral posterior based tongue flap is designed to pressure as much of the tongue tip as possible.
It is important to pressure the tip for speech and other functions.
59. RANULA
Intra cranial section of the ninth nerve for glossopharyngeal neuralgias produces
both an anesthesia and a loss of taste on the posterior third of the tongue.
In unilateral injury of the hypoglossal nerve, the tip of the tongue when protruded
tilts to the paralyzed side. This is due to the unopposed action of the opposite
genioglossus muscle. Muscles of the affected side undergo atrophy. During degultion
the larynx is deviated to the sound wide due to ipsilateral paralysis of the depressors
of the hyoid bone.
When the muscles are paralysis, or in the unconscious patient, the tongue may fall
backwards into the pharynx and obstruct respiration. In such cases head tilt-chin lift
technique is performed. As the tongue is attached to the mandible. (by genioglossus
muscle), lifting the chin will pull the tongue formed and off the posterior pharyngeal
wall.
60. Cancer of the tongue frequently metastasizes bilaterally, primarily because of
the rich lymphatics in the submucosal plexus, which freely communicates
across the midline. In addition, collecting lymphatic trunks, from the apex,
central and posterior groups have many collecting channels that cross over to
terminate in contralateral lymph nodes.
Malignancies of the tongue frequently grow to considerable size before
producing symptoms
62. The term palate refers to the roof of the mouth. (Latin. palate = roof of
the mouth)
It separates the oral and nasal cavity.
PALATE
63. 3. The medial edges of the palatal processes fuse with the free lower edge
of the nasal septum, thus separating two nasal cavities, from each other
and from the mouth.
4. At later stage mesoderm in the palate undergoes intramembranous
ossification to form hard palate.
DEVELOPMENT OF PALATE
64. 5. However, ossification does not extend to the most posterior portion hence it
remains as the Soft palate.
6. Part of the palate developed from frontonasal process is Primary palate.
7. Part of palate developed from Palatal processes is Secondary palate.
Elevation of the palatine shelves occurs when tongue descends , which allows
their meeting in the midline and fusion.
DEVELOPMENT OF PALATE
65.
66. •Its anterior 2/3rd
is formed by

•Posterior 1/3rd is
formed by
Horizontal plates
of Palatine bone.
HARD PALATE-
67. The hard palate is covered by a mucous membrane which is attached to the
periosteum.
Deep to the membrane, there are mucus-secreting palatine glands.
The anterior mucous membrane has 3-4 transverse palatine folds called as
Rugae.
Rugae
68. Boundaries of Hard palate
Antero-lateral margins – Continuous with alveolar arches
and gingiva .
Posterior margins - Gives attachment to Soft Palate.
Superior Surface - Forms the floor of nasal cavity.
Inferior Surface – Forms the roof of the oral cavity.
70. The incisive foramen - The opening of the incisive canal.
Neurovasculature -
-The Nasopalatine nerve
-The terminal branch of the Sphenopalatine artery

72. Lymphatics –
They drain mostly to Upper deep cervical lymph
nodes and partly to Retropharyngeal lymph nodes .
73. The soft palate is a fibro muscular
contain which is suspended from the
posterior body of the hard palate and
project in backward and downward
direction, with its superior and
posterior surface towards the pharynx
and its inferior and anterior surface
towards the mouth
SOFT PALATE
74. It enables the mouth to the cut off from oral part of the pharynx as during
breathing with mouth full, or separating the oral and nasal part of the
pharynx. It is attached anteriorly to the hard palate but posteriorly it is free
with a short, conical, midline process, the uvula, hanging down from its
posterior border.
75. In the resting state i.e., relaxed and pendent its anterior part continues the
curvature of the hard palate, while the posterior part turns downwards,
following the curvature of the dorsum of the tongue. Laterally, it is
continuous with the palatoglossal and palatopharyngeal arches, with which
and with the dorsum of the tongue, it forms the isthmus of fauces (operative
between the oral cavity and oro pharynx) superiorly, it forms the floor of the
nasal part of the pharynx.
76. Soft palate is a thick fold of mucosa enclosing on aponeurosis, muscular tissue,
vessels, nerves, lymphoid tissue and mucous glands, the glands lie deep to the oral
mucosa of the anterior part, where they are continuous with those of the hard
palate.
The epithelium on the upper surface is a pseudo stratified ciliated
columnar epithelium i.e., the respiratory mucosa, whereas on the lower surface, it
is lined by my nonkeratinized stratified squamous epithelium i.e. the oral mucosa.
The palatine aponeurosis is the flattened tendon of the tensor palate
muscle and forms the fibrous basis of the palate. Near the median plane the
aponeurosis splits to enclose the musculus uvulae. The levator palati and
palatopharyngeus lie on the superior surface of the palatine aponeurosis and the
palatoglossus lies on the inferior surface of the palatine aponeurosis.
The velum palatine is sometimes defined as the posterior portion of the
soft palate, but in practice the term is used as a synonym for soft plate
77. The muscles of the soft palate are derived from the mesoderm of the fourth
through the sixth bronchial arch with the exception of tensor veli palatine,
which is derived from the mesoderm of the first bronchial arch.
The soft palate is composed of fine muscles:
Tensor veli palatini
Levator veli palatini
Palatopharyngeus
Uvular / musculus uvulae.
MUSCLES OF THE SOFT PALATE
78. It is a fibrous sheet
attached to the posterior
border of the hard
palate.
It is a extended tendon
of Tensor veli palatini
and forms the fibrous
basis of the palate.

79. Near median plane, the aponeurosis splits to enclose the musculus uvulae.
PALATINE APONEUROSIS
80. Origin: The muscles take origin from:
The scaphoid fossa of the medial
pterygoid plate.
The lateral and fibrous lamina of the
auditory tube.
The sulcus tubae and the spine of the
sphenoid bone.
Insertion: The muscle is triangular in
shape and converges below to form a
round tendon the tendon turns medially
around the lateral side of pterygoid
hamulus, from which it is separated by a
bursa. Finally the tendon reaches soft
palate for insertion as palatine
aponeurosis after passing through the
tendinous arch of the origin of the
buccinator muscle.
TENSOR PALATI
81. Action:
The main action of the tensor palati is to tense the palatine aponeurosis so that other
muscles may elevate or depress it without altering its shape.
When the tensor palati contracts (e.g., in swallowing and yawning) it pull upon the cartilage
of the auditory tube, opens the tube, and permits equalization of air pressure between the
middle ear and nose.
Applied anatomy this action is impaired in children with cleft palate, who
hence have a higher incidence of middle can problems.
(It is said to dilate the auditory tube – hence it is known as dilator tubae).
82. Origin: This muscle arises from the
Quadrate area on the infection surface of the apex of
petrous temporal bone anterior to the carotid canal.
Carotid sheath
Medial lamina of the cartilaginous part of auditory tube.
Insertion: It forms a rounded belly that is inserted
into the nasal surface of the palatine aponeurosis
between the two heads of palatopharyngeus.
The two levator muscles in passing
down to the palate are directed forwards and
medially, together forming a V-shaped sling.
Action:
Their contraction pulls the palate upwards and
backwards to close the pharyngeal isthmus.
Contraction of the levator also opens the
cartilaginous tube and equalized air pressure
between the middle ear and the nose
LEVATOR PALATI
83. Origin-
From the undersurface of palatine
aponeursis, where it is continuous with
the muscle of opposite side.
Insertion-
It passes in front of tonsil and it is
inserted into the side of the tongue.
PALATOGLOSSUS
84. Origin: The muscle arises from two heads,
The anterior herd arises from the posterior border of the hard plate and the
anterior part of the upper surface of the palatine aponeurosis.
The posterior head arises further back on the upper surface of the aponeurosis.
Insertions: The two heads arch downwards over the lateral edge of the aponeurosis,
fair, and form or muscle that passes downwards beneath the mucous membrane
and submucosa of the lateral wall of the pharynx just behind the tonsil.
Actions:
The upper part of the muscle raises the palatopharyngeal fold of mucous
membrane that constitutes the posterior pillar of the fauces.
The lower part (blending with stylopharyngeus and salpingopharyngeus) is
inserted chiefly into the posterior border of the thyroid lamina and its horns.
Some of the anterior fibers are inserted into the upper border of the thyroid
lamina first in front of the superior horn. Some of the posterior ones merge with
the surrounding fibers of the inferior constrictor.
The muscle is an element of larynx and pharynx.
It arches the palate, making it more concave on its oral surface.

STRUCTURES OF SOFT PALATE
87. ARTERIAL SUPPLY:
Arteries of the palate include the greater
palatine branch of the maxillary artery, the
ascending palatine branch of the facial
artery, and the palatine branch of the
ascending pharyngeal artery. The maxillary,
facial, and ascending pharyngeal arteries are
all branches that arise in the neck from the
external carotid artery
88. Ascending palatine artery and palatine branch
The ascending palatine artery of the facial artery ascends along the external surface of the pharynx.
The palatine branch loops medially over the top of the superior constrictor muscle of the pharynx to
penetrate the pharyngeal fascia with the levator veli palatini muscle and follow the levator veli palatini
to the soft palate.
The palatine branch of the ascending pharyngeal artery follows the same course as the palatine
branch of the ascending palatine artery from the facial artery and may replace the vessel.
89. The greater palatine artery originates from the
maxillary artery in the pterygopalatine fossa.
It descends into the palatine canal where it
gives origin to a small lesser palatine branch,
and then continues through the greater
palatine foramen onto the inferior surface of
the hard palate The greater palatine artery
passes forward on the hard palate and then
leaves the palate superiorly through the
incisive canal to enter the medial wall of the
nasal cavity where it terminates. The greater
palatine artery is the major artery of the hard
palate. It also supplies palatal gingiva. The
lesser palatine branch passes through the
lesser palatine foramen just posterior to the
greater palatine foramen, and contributes to
the vascular supply of the soft palate.
90. Veins from the palate
generally follow the
arteries and ultimately
drain into the pterygoid
plexus of veins in the
infratemporal fossa or
into a network of veins
associated with the
palatine tonsil, which
drain into the
pharyngeal plexus of
veins or directly into the
facial vein
VENOUS DRAINAGE
91. Lymphatic from the soft palate empty into retropharyngeal and upper deep
cervical lymph nodes.
LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE
92. Motor supply: all the muscles of the soft palate are supplied by the
pharyngeal plexus except for the tensor palate, which is supplied by a branch
from the nerve to the medial pterygoid (from the mandibular branch of the
trigeminal nerve). The fibers to this plexus are from the nucleus ambiguous
via the cranial part of the accessory nerve and the pharyngeal branch of the
vagus
NERVE SUPPLY
93. Secretomotor supply: the preganglionic fibers arise from the superior
salivatory nucleus and pass successively through the facial, greater petrosal,
nerve to pterygoid canal and one relayed into the pterygo-palatine ganglion.
Post ganglionic fibers reach the palatine glands via greater and lesser palatine
nerves.
94. General sensory nerves: are derived from
Middle and posterior (lesser) palatine nerves, which are branches of the
maxillary nerves. (through the pterygopalatine ganglion)
Glossopharyngeal nerve.
95. Special sensory (gustatory) nerves:
Taste sensation from the oral surface of soft palate are conveyed by
the glossopharyngeal and lesser palatine nerves. The fibers travel through the
greater petrosal nerve to the geniculate ganglion of the facial nerve and from
there to the nucleus of the solitary tract.

LINGUAL PAPILLAE :
These are the projection of the mucosa from the dorsum of the tongue. They are numerous but limited to the presulcal part of the dorsum, producing its characteristics roughness the papillae are most visible in the living when the tongue is dry.
Filiform papillae:
Covers most of the presulcal dorsal area, conical in shape except near the tip of the tongue they are arranged in rows parallel to sulcus terminalis. Each papilla has a branching core of connective tissue covered by epithelium. It contributes to the roughness of the tongue oral helps in the movement of food with in the mouth.
Fungiform papillae:
They are relatively few in number and are more concentrated at the sides and tips of the tongue. They are layer than filiform papillae and are globular in shape. It appears red due to their rich blood supply. Each usually beans one or more taste buds on its apical surface.
Foliate papillae:
Present at the sides of the tongue near the sulcus terminalis. They bear numerous taste buds.
Vallate papillae:
Large cylindrical structures, 8-12 in number, present on the dorsum of the tongue. They form a V shaped row just anterior to the sulcus terminalis. Each papilla, 1-2 mm in diameter, is encompassed by a slight circular elevation is the mucosa which is separated from the papillae by a circular sulcus. Taste buds are present in both walls of the sulcus and small muco-serous glands (of Von Ebner) apex into the sulcus base.
It is a quadrilateral muscle.
Origin: It arises from the upper surface of the greater corner and partly from the body of the hyoid bone.
Insertion: The muscle passes upward and slightly formed under cover of the mylohyoid and is inserted into the side of the tongue between the styloglossus laterally and the inferior longitudinal muscles medially.
Actions: It depresses the side of the tongue and makes the dorsal surface convex.
Relations:
Superficial/lateral relations:
Covered by mylohyoid
Between mylohyoid and hyoglossus the following structures are situated from above downwards.
Mucous membrane of the side of the tongue
Stylogossus
Lingual nerve
Submandibular ganglion, which is suspended from the lingual nerve by two roots.
Deep part of submandibular gland and its duct; the duct is hooked at its lower margin from lateral to medial side by the lingual nerve.
Hypoglossal nerve
Suprahyoid branch of first part of lingual artery.
Deep/medial relations:
Inferior longitudinal muscle, close to the insertion.
Middle constrictor of pharynx, record part of the lingual artery – close to the origin.
Stylopharyngeus, glossopharyngeal nerve, stylohyoid ligament and the junction of first and second parts of lingual artery.
The chief blood supply of the tongue is derived from the lingual artery. It is the second branch of the external carotid artery its origin is just caudal to the posterior belly of they digastric and the angle of mandible. As it passes anteriorly it gives off a tonsillar branch. The lingual artery than travels deep to the posterior part of the digastric tendon. It leaves the submandibular triangle and passes deep to the posterior border of the hyoglossus muscle where it gives off a small suprahyoid branch. Once caudal to the hyoglossus muscle, the lingual artery gives off the dorsal lingual artery, which supplies the dorsum of tongue, vallecula, epiglottis, and adjacent soft palate. The ravine branch unites both dorsal lingual arteries at the tip and provides a rich plexus.
Once the lingual artery reaches the anterior edge of the hyoglossus muscles, it divides in its terminal branch – the sublingual and the deep lingual artery. The sublingual artery travels along the genioglossus and the sublingual gland and has an extension anastomotic network with the contralateral sublingual artery. It supplies the sublingual gland, the mylohyoid muscle and adjacent musculature. The deep lingual artery courses anteriorly, deep to ventral mucosa. It gives off multiple branches that ascend toward the dorsum of the tongue. Communication between bilateral deep lingual arteries is seen posteriorly through the transverse lingual artery as well as at the tip where the deep lingual arteries anastomose.
Primary palate developes before 6th week of intrauterine life and seconday palate after 6th week.
