  • Front
  • Back
Oral vestibule: bounded externally by
bounded externally by the lips and cheeks and internally by the lips and gums
Oral cavity proper: The area between
alveolar arches and teeth.
Masseter muscle
Communication btw the oral vestibule and
and the oral cavity proper (posterior to the 3rd molar aka wisdom teeth)
Frenulum- in
the midline of each lip
Opening of the parotid duct- lateral to
the second maxillary molar tooth
Borders of the oral cavity
Lateral and anterior: the teeth and gums
Superior: hard palate
Inferior: the mucosa covering the tongue and sublingual area
Posterior: the palatoglossal folds(arch) (right and left)
Tongue body lies in
horizontally in the oral cavity
Dorsum of the tongue Terminal sulcus: divides
anterior 2/3 from posterior 2/3
Lingual tonsil location
posterior to the terminal sulcus
Tongue Root:
posterior 2/3, lies vertical, constitutes the lower part of the anterior boundary of the oropharynx
between the dorsum of the tongue and the epiglottis
Median glossoepiglotic
between the dorsum of the tongue and the lateral border of the epiglottis
Lateral glossoepiglotic fold
depression between median and lateral glossoepiglotic folds
Epiglottic vallecula
Opending of the submandibular duct
on the sublingual caruncle
seen on either side of the sublingual frenulum
Deep lingual veins
aT submental triangle
Mylohoid and geniohyoid
pulls the hyoid bone anteriorly
• Geniohyoid muscle
Geniohyoid is deep to
o deep to mylohyoid
Extrinsic muscles of the tongue: alter position of the tongue
) Genioglossus m.:
Hyoglossus m.:
Styloglossu m.:
Palatoglossus m
Genioglossus m function
protrusion of the tongue
Genioglossus m.: innvervation
hypoglossal nerve (CN XII
: If one genioglossus doesn’t work the tongue cannot be protruded in the midline. The functional side protrudes normally the nonfunctional side protrudes less or not at all. So when testing for hypoglossal n lesions
the protruded tongue will deviate towards the side of the lesion.
Hyoglossus m.:
a. Deep to
mylohyoid muscle
Hyoglossus m function
depresses and retracts the tongue
Hyoglossus m.: innervation
hypoglossal nerve (CN XII
Styloglossu m.: function
retracts the tongue and draws it superiorly
Styloglossu m innervation
hypoglossal nerve
Palatoglossus m.:
a. Function
elevates the tongue
Palatoglossus m.: innervation
vagus
Intrinsic muscles of the tongue: alters shape of the tongue
a. Vertical, transverse, superior longitudinal and inferior longitudinal groups of fibers
Intrinsic muscles of the tongue innervation
Hypoglossal nerve
lies on the mylohyoid muscle
Sublingual Gland
Deep part of the submandibular gland: on the
deep side of mylohyoid muscle
Passes lateral, inferior and medial to the submandibular duct
Lingual nerve
Lingual carries to the anterior 2/3 of the tongue
GSA
: near the 3rd mandibular molar tooth, suspended below the lingual nerve.
Submandibular ganglion
Submandibular ganglion function
Parasympathetic preganglionic fibers from CN7(chorda tympani) coming from superior salivary nucleus synapse here to innervate the submandibular and sublingual glands
passes between the submandibular gland and the hyoglossus muscle. It courses inferior to the lingual nerve
Hypoglossal nerve
Lingual artery: Arises from the external carotid artery in the
carotid triangle
Anterior 2//3 of the tongue

Chorda tympani (7)
Hypoglossal
Posterior 1/3 of the tongue
