Median Palatine Process (Primary Plate)

53
Q

Median Palatine Process (Primary Plate)

A
  • Wedge-shaped mass of mesenchyme
  • Located between the maxillary prominences
  • Forms the premaxillary part of the maxilla
54
Q

When does Secondary Palate formation begin?

A

Early in the 6th week

55
Q

What does the Secondary Palate develop from?

A

Lateral Palatine Processes (arise from mesenchyme of MXP)

56
Q

Formation of Secondary Palate

A

(1) Palatine processes extend inferiorly on each side of the tongue
(2) Mandible elongates which pulls the tongue forward and down in the mouth
(3) Palatine processes “flip” horizontally above the tongue (occurs around 7-8wks); this allows the palate to grow towards midline and fuse (Palatal shelf fuses in Anterior to Posterior direction)

57
Q

Formation of the Final Palate

A
  • Completion of the fusion of the primary and secondary palates
  • Bone gradually develops in the primary palate, forming the premaxillary part of the maxilla which houses the incisors
  • Formation of hard and soft palate
  • Nasopalatine canal persists in medial plane
58
Q

How is the hard plate formed?

A

Bone extends from maxillae and palatine bones into lateral palatine processes to form the hard palate

59
Q

How is the soft palate formed?

A

Posterior portions of the Lateral Palatine Processes do not ossify, but instead continue to extend posteriorly and fuse, thus forming the soft palate and uvula

60
Q

Nasopalatine persists in the medial plane and is represented in the adult hard palate by the:

A

Incisive Fossa

61
Q

Cleft Lip

A
  • Cleft extends through upper lip
  • Often clefting of the nose and/or maxilla
  • Lack of fusion between maxillary prominences and medial nasal prominences
62
Q

Cleft Palate

A
  • Clefts of secondary palate to incisive fossa
  • May involve uvula and/or hard and soft palates
63
Q

Cleft Palate forms due to lack of fusion between:
(1)
(2)

A

(1) Lateral Palatine Processes with nasal spetum
(2) Lateral Palatine Processes with Median Palatine Process

64
Q

Nasal Septum

A

Down growth from internal parts of merged medial nasal prominences
