Oral epithelium is what type of epithelium?
Stratified squamous
Cell turnover in oral epithelium is quick or slow?
Quick
Layers of keratinized epithelium? (4)
1. Stratum basale
2. Stratum spinosum
3. Stratum granulosum
4. Stratum corneum
Layers of non-keratinized epithelium? (4)
1. Stratum basale
2. Stratum spinosum
3. Stratum intermedium
4. Stratum superficiale
Where is masticatory mucosa found? (2)
1. Hard palate
2. Attached gingiva
What is mucoperiosteum?
Lamina propria attaches directly to periosteum-- no submucosa
High connective tissue papillae found in what type of mucosa?
masticatory mucosa
Keratinization of masticatory mucosa?
Either keratinized or parakeratinized
Where are sutures not needed in an incision?
1. Hard palate
2. Attached gingiva
Incision won't spread apart cus mucosa is so thick
Injections are more painful in what areas of the mouth?
Masticatory mucosa-- hard palate & attached gingiva --> Lamina propria is so dense, diffusion is slow
Is swelling a problem in masticatory mucosa?
Very painful-- tissue is tight & not much room for expansion
Where is lining mucosa found? (3)
1. Buccal
2. Under tongue
3. Insides of lip
3 layers of lining mucosa?
1. thick non-keratinized epithelium
2. thick loose lamina propria
3. Elastic submucosa
Incisions need to be sutured in which type of mucosa?
Lining mucosa-- they will gape open
(buccal, under tongue, inside lips)
Why are injections and swelling less painful in lining mucosa?
Looser lamina propria-- more elastic tissue & room for diffusion
3 parts of the lip?
1. Exterior
2. Vermillion border
3. Oral surface
What type of epithelium is found on exterior of lip?
Thin skin-- stratified squamous keratinized epithelium
Oral surface of lip is made of which type of epithelium?
Thick stratified squamous non-keratinized epithelium
Mucosa of oral surface of lip & vermillion border attaches to?
underlying muscle-- obicularis oris
What type of mucosa makes up vermillion border of lip?
Thin stratified squamous parakeratinized epithelium
What gives red color to vermillion border?
Capillaries close to surface
What are Fordyce's spots?
Sebaceous glands inside of mouth-- abundant in corners of mouth
Soft palate is composed of what type of epithelium?
Oral surface: Stratified squamous non-keratinized epithelium

Nasal surface: Pseudostratified ciliated columar epithelium
What type of mucous glands are present in submucosa of soft palate?
Minor salivary glands
Pharynx is composed of what type of epithelium?
Stratified squamous non-keratinized epithelium
Skeletal muscle in tongue present in what orientaion?
3 different orientations
Tongue composed of what type of epithelium?
Stratified squamous non-keratinized epithelium
Characteristics of ventral surface of tongue? (3)
1. Smooth
2. Thin epithelium
3. High CT papillae
4 types of papillae on tongue?
1. Filiform
2. Fungiform
3. Foliate
4. Circumvallate
What type of papillae do not have taste buds?
Filiform
Largest & least abundant type of papilla of tongue?
Circumvallate papilla
Which papilla are located on sides of tongue?
Foliate
Taste buds are located where on circumvallate papillae?
Lateral walls
Circumvallate papilla have keratinized or non-keratinized epithelium?
Both:
Surface-- keratinized
Lateral walls-- non-keratinized
What type of glands empty into valley of circumvallate papillae?
Von Ebners glands
What is unique about Von Ebners glands?
Pure serous glands
Taste buds lie within epithelium of? (3)
1. Papillae of tongue
2. Pharynx
3. Soft palate
How does taste bud open into oral cavity?
Taste pore
4 cell types present in taste buds?
2 types of support (sustentacular cells)
3. Neuro-epithelial cells= Taste cells (gustatory cells)
4. Basal regenerative cells (stem cells)
What are neuro-epithelial cells?
Taste cells (gustatory cells)
Have microvilli & basal secretory vesicles
Associated w/ nerves-- sense taste
