what are the four regions of the palate

A
  1. midline raphe
  2. anterior lateral
  3. posterior hard palate
  4. soft palate
33
Q

Q

what mucosa is found in the posterior hard palate

A

masticatory mucosa with mucous glands in submucosa

36
Q

what mucosa is found in the soft palate

A

lining mucosa

37
Q

what innverates the anterior palatine in region of incisors

A

branch of V2 -> nasopalatine n

38
Q

what innverates the ant and post hard palate

A

branch of V2 -> greater palatine n

39
Q

what innervates the soft palate

A

branch of V2 -> LESSER palatine n

40

41
Q

T/F

the anterior 2/3 of the hard palate is comprised of fibromuscular
tissue attached to posterior edge of hard palate

A

FALSE!!

anterior 2/3 of palate comprised of bone –> Palatine process of maxilla and horizontal plate of
palatine bone

42
Q

A

fibromuscular tissue attached to posterior edge of hard palate

43
Q

does each portion of the hard palate have 2 or 3 sides and what are they?

A

2!!

  1. nasal side -covered with respiratory epithelium (PSCC)
