- vertical
23
Q
Tongue: Intrinsic:
Superior Longitudinal Muscle
A
O: sub-mucous fibrous tissue “close to the root”
I: not quiet to the tip…terminate in the fibrous membrane
- thin layer of oblique and longitudinal muscle fibers
- just deep to the mucous membrane of the dorsum of tongue
24
Q
Tongue: Intrinsic:
Superior Longitudinal Muscle
A
“substantial” portion of the tongue; confined to median portion of the tongue
muscle tends to shorten
turn the tip upward
oblique fibers assist in turning ht lateral margins upward giving dorsum concave or trough-like appearance
25
Tongue: Intrinsic:
Inferior Longitudinal Muscle
O: root of the tongue (some from hyoid bone)
I: apex of the tongue
F: shortens the tongue or pulls tip upward
-consists of bundle of muscle fibers on the undersurface of the tongue...somewhat laterally
26

F: flattens the tongue
confined to lateral portion of the tongue
highly developed anteriorly
28
Extrinsic Tongue Muscles (4)

- Styloglossus
- Palatoglossus
- Hyoglossus
29
Tongue: Extrinsic:
Genioglossus

forms bulk of tongue tissue
strongest and largest of the extrinsic muscles
flat, triangular
30
Posterior fibers of genioglossus
draw whole tongue anteriorly to protrude the tip from the mouth
press teeth and alveolar ridges
31
Contraction of anterior fibers of genioglossus
retraction of tongue
32
Contraction of entire genioglossus muscle
draws tongue downward (makes a trough)
33
Tongue: Extrinsic:
Styloglossus

35
Tongue: Extrinsic:
Palatoglossus Muscle
AKA glossopalatine muscle
O: anterior surface of soft palate
I: sides of tongue
F: lower soft palate or raise back of the tongue to groove dorsum

37
tongue positions and configurations are mediated by
lingual musculature & lower jaw movement
contractions of the extrinsic and intrinsic muscles
38
Tongue: Motor Control
Posterior Genioglossus
contracts to move tongue anteriorly (produce high vowels)
39
Tongue: Motor Control
Ballistic Movement
sudden contractions of single muscles that cease abruptly before the movement ceases
40
Tongue: Motor Control
Movement of the tongue:
complex pattern of finely graded changes in activity...one or two muscle produce most movement.
others cooperate...stabilize adjacent structures...oppose movement

53
The mandible articulates with...
the temporal bone at the glenoid fossa...forms TMJ
Only truely moveable bone in the face
Condyle of the mandible and the mandibular of glenoid fossa of the temporal bone...creates the joing,,,lines by articulat or meniscus disc...the joint allows moemenet in 3 planes...vertical, A-P (protrusion/retraction), horizontal

```
57
The Palate
modifies the degree of coupling between the nasal pharynx and the remainder of the Vocal Tract
fixed body plate in front
muscular valve behind
58
The Palate's 3 Parts:
1. Hard Palate (bony)
2. Alveolar arch (tooth bearing process of the maxillae)
3. Soft Palate (Muscular)
(HAS)
59
Palate: Hard Palate
Formed by medial projections of the palatine processes of the maxillae
- articulate midline
- contribute to 3/4 of the roof of the mouth and floor of the nasal cavity
60
Palatine processes (PP):
thicker in front...blend with alveolar arch
61
Posteriorly Palatine Processes
articulates with horizontal plates of the paired palatine bones: posterior 1/4 of the hard palate...horizontal plates are free...form the posterior nasal spine
62
Palate: Hard Palate: Rugae
an area where the membrane is very well developed and is just posterior to the alveolar arch
- facilitates lingua-palatal articulation
- may burn this if eating hot pizza
63
floor of nasal cavity=
inferior meatus
64
Palate: Soft Palate:
Palatoglossus
- Paired
- sometimes thought of as a pharyngeal muscle or muscle of the tongue
- EXTRINSIC muscle of the tongue
- makes up the anterior faucial pillar*
- depresses the soft palate
- if palate is fixed...raises sides and back of tongue
- semi-circular
- acts like a sphincter
- decreases the distance between the Palatoglossal arches
65
Palate: Soft Palate:
Palatopharyngeus
- Muscle of the soft palate AND a "longitudinal" muscle of the pharynx
O: rises from the soft palate...continuous with those on opposite side
- other fibers rise in the region of the Pterygoid hamulus
- others from the cartilage of the auditory tube...make up the salpingopharyngeus
- divide into two fasciculi (bundles)
66
Palatopharyngeus Function:
guide bolus of food into lower pharynx during deglutition
acts as a sphincter to lower the palate and decrease distance betweenthe palatopharyngeal arches
swallowing and gagging
Regarded as...extrinsic muscle of the larnx...contraction raises the larynx (high pitch)...tilt the thyroid forward
67
Palate: Soft Palate:
The Tensor Palati (Tensor Veli Palatini)
O: arises from ribbon-like muscle, thin plate immediately in front of the sphenoipetrosal fissure at the base of the medial Pterygoid plate
- additional fibers from the spine and angle of the Sphenoid bone
- anterolateral wall of the cartilaginous portion of the auditory tube
- becomes narrow and tendinous
- tendon winds around the hamulus of the medial Pterygoid plate...expands into the palatal aponeurosis
I: fibers fan-like aponeurosis attach to the posterior border of the hard palate (blend into the connective tissue and musculature of the soft palate
I: medial fibers fuse with the anoneurosis of the opposite side
68
palatine aponeurosis
forms fibrous "skeleton" of the soft palate
69
Palate: Soft Palate:
Levator Palati (Levator Veli Palatini [LVP])
- bulk of the soft palate
- complex muscles
O: petrous portion of the temporal bone and posteromedial plate of the cartilaginous framework of the auditory tube
- in the sagital view..forms a ridge (torus) distributes fiberes along surfce of soft palate...interdigitate opposite side
I: soft palate
2 elevaors form a sling for the soft palate
70
palatine elevators
raise vertical position of the soft palate into horizontal postions
- stretch palate backward
-simultaneous tensing of the Tensor Veli Palatini
71
Soft Palate:
Musculus Uvulae
Paired
O: nasal spines of the palatine bones from adjacent palatine aponeurosis
I: Uvula
F: shortens and lifts the soft palate
may be the articulator in some languages
72
uvulae
small pendulous structure of the soft palate
73
Soft Palate: Function
Tense muscles
soft palate rises, closes off nasal cavity...sound goes through oral cavity (oral sounds)
74
Soft Palate: function
Relaxed muscles
soft palate drops, coupes the oral and nasal cavities...sound goes through both cavities (nasal sounds)
75
Tonsillar fossa
triangular space
filled with masses of lymphoid tissue (helps fight infection)
76
palatine tonsils are the masses of
lymphoid tissue
77
Walderyer's Ring
tontillar tissue surround oropharynx
78
Pharynx
Musculotendinous tube
extends from base of skull to C6
12cm long
most inferior= continuous with esophagus
permits passage of food and liquids
composed of circular (circumferential) and longitudinal muscles
- circumferential muscles possess sphincter like action
- aids in moving foods and liquids through it
79

Nasopharynx
Oropharynx
Laryngopharynx
80
Pharynx: Muscles
striated...voluntary

F: draw lateral walls of pharynx upward and medially
-made up by Palatopharyngeus (palate muscle)
94
Velopharyngeal mechanism
helps to vary the acoustic coupling between the oral and nasal cavities
- VP closure is very important to articulation
Inadequate= nasalized speech
- Inability to impound air pressure in the oral cavity
- Unvoiced consonants may become voiced
- Plosives become snorts
- Vowels nasalized
95
Velopharyngeal Mechanism
Excessive VP closure results in a "stuffy nose" quality
- adequacy of VP closure
- timing of VP closure
VERY important to articulation parameters
Closure= elevating and retracting soft palate and constricting the pharyngeal walls of the nasopharynx, PPW moves anteriorly
96
Passavant's Pad
an area of the nasopharynx
on the PPW
area that protrudes (bulges) on PPW during phonation
assists with closure of soft palate
97
Vibrations generated by VF...have 3 parameters
- Frequency
- Intensity
- Duration
98
Resonance:
Natural frequency
most everything, will vibrate when energized by an outside force
vibrate at its own natural frequency
```
air stream (lungs) energize the VF
Frequency of VF directly impacted by tension and mass
```
99
Resonance:
Forced Vibration:
natural period or frequency
takes an unreasonable amount of effort to cause it to travel at an unnatural period...forced vibration
When external force is removed...the vibrations will stop abruptly...the system is "highly damped"
100
Resonance:
Radiation of Energy
anything that absorbs energy at a specific frequency radiates energy best at the same frequency
vibrating systems resonate at their natural frequencies when they can...do not absorb energy well at frequencies other than their natural frequencies
