ORAL MUCOSA

Stratified Squamous epithelium
• The oral mucosa is composed of stratified squamous epithelium overlying a layer of connective tissue proper (aka lamina propria). There may be a deeper layer of submucosa present.

Basement membrane

• The basement membrane lies between the epithelium and lamina propria in the oral mucosa.
3 main types:
• Lining mucosa
• Masticatory mucosa
• Specialized mucosa

Lining mucousa

• Contains:
- elastic fibers which provide tissue with a movable base.
- submucosa under lamina propria which allows for compression of tissue during chewing (mastication), speech, and swallowing.
Soft pliable - nonnkertanized squamous epithelium
Lamina dermis -smoother fewer

Alveolar Mucousa

•Extremely mobile, lines the vestibules of the oral cavity.
• Extremely mobile, lines the vestibules of the oral cavity.
• Lamina propria has an extensive vascular supply
Mandibular
making the mucosa more red than the buccal mucosa.
•Lots of elastic fibers in the lamina propria making the tissue mobile.

Lips

• Non-keratinized squamous epithelium (inner lips).
• Lamina propria contains
minor seromucous salivary glands.
D
• Submucosa contains muscle fibers of the orbicularis oris muscle.
•Vermilion border is the junction between the oral mucosa and the skin of the face.
• Contains eleidin (clear, semi fluid, intracellular protein) so the blood vessels of the papillary layer transpire through making the color of the lips pink/red.

SOFT PALATE

• Non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelium.
• Lamina propria is highly vascularized.
• Submucosa contains muscles of the soft palate and mucous glands, (minor salivary glands).

Masticatory

MASTICATORY MUCOSA
• Parakeratinized and orthokeratinized stratified squamous epithelium (least common).
• Covering: attached gingiva, dorsal surface of tongue and hard palate.
• Thicker, rubbery surface texture, resilient with keratin, firm base aids in speech and mastication.
• Abundant, pronounced rete ridges (prickle cell layer) and connective tissue papillae provides firm base.
• Submucosa is thin or absent.
• Sutures are rarely needed; local anesthetic injections mav be more difficult and cause greater discomfort than those in lining
mucosa.

GINGIVA AND EPITHELIAL
ATTACHMENT

• From the edge of free gingiva to mucogingival junction.
• Gingiva is divided into:
- Free gingiva (marginal zone).
- Attached gingiva.
- Interdental gingiva (papilla).

FREE AND ATTACHED GINGIVA

Free Gingiva:
-Inner margin - gingival sulcus
-Outer margin - oral cavity
-Keratinized and smooth.
Attached Gingiva:
-Between free gingival groove and mucogingival junction
-Keratinized and stippled, “orange peel” appearance.
Alveolar mucosa is not keratinized

Hyperkeratinization

Study These Flashcards

Hyperkeratinization
• Non-keratinized tissue can become keratinized.
• Tissue response to frictional or chemical trauma (chronic trauma).
• Examples:
- Linea alba on buccal mucosa (a line showing where max and mand teeth occlude).
- Frictional keratosis (tissue response to bruxism (teeth grinding) or habitual cheek biting).
- Gingival fibrosis (toughening of the gums).

Tongue

Study These Flashcards

A thick muscular organ that occupies the floor of the mouth and fills the oral cavity.
Anterior 2/3rd (body of tongue) is composed mostly of skeletal muscle.
• Posterior 1/3rd (root of the tongue) is anchored to the hyoid bone and is covered with lingual tonsils.
• Connected to the floor of the mouth.
• Papillae provide friction for handling food and contain taste buds.
I
• Aids in mixing food with saliva and moving it towards the pharynx.

Dorsal surface

Specialized mucosa on anterior 2/3rd of tongue 4 types of papillae: 1. filiform papillae 2. fungiform papillae 3. foliate papillae 4. circumvallate papilla

Papillae

FILIFORM PAPILLAE (pg. 117)

• Make up the majority, most common, located on the dorsal surface of the tongue. • They look like fine pointed cones, 2-3 mm in height, with the tips pointing towards the throat. • Slender, threadlike, with a thick layer of ortho/parakeratinized epithelium overlying core of lamina propria. • They give the tongue its velvet-like texture.

FUNGIFORM PAPILLAE

• Less numerous, most are located on the body of the tongue on the dorsal surface. • Appear as reddish dots on the tongue. • Mushroom shaped (cap larger than the stalk) with a thin layer of orthokeratinized or parakeratinized epithelium overlying highly vascular lamina propria. • Function: taste sensation (taste buds are found in the superficial layers ).

FOLIATE PAPILLAE

• 4-11 vertical, parallel ridges found on the lateral (side) posterior surface of the tongue. • Leaf-shaped, lined with ortho/parakeratinized epithelium overlying core of lamina propria. • Taste buds are located in the superficial layers. • Function: taste sensation.

CIRCUMVALLATE PAPILLAE

• 7 to 15 raised, mushroom shaped large papillae (3 to 5 mm), ortho/parakeratinized epithelium overlying a core of lamina propria. • Located along a v-shaped sulcus between the body and the base of the tongue. • Each has a surrounding groove where the ducts and minor salivary glands are located (Von Ebner's glands). - watery secretions wash the tongue so new tastes can be perceived. • Function: taste sensation. - hundreds of taste buds line the wall of the papilla.

Taste Buds

TASTE BUDS • Microscopic barrel shaped bodies derived from epithelium, composed of 30 to 80 spindle shaped cells. • Found in the oral epithelium, mainly the tongue but some on soft palate!!! • Dissolved molecules of food contact the taste receptors at the taste pore (opening of taste bud). • Taste cells are associated with sensory neuron processes which receive messages of taste sensation through the receptors. - the message is sent to CNS to be identified as certain type of taste. • Four fundamental taste sensation: sweet, sour, salty, and bitter. • Rapid turnover rate: about 10 days.

Which papillae have a very vascular lamina dura and appear as reddish dots on the dorsal of the tongue? • A. Fungiform • B. Filliform • C. Circumvallate • D. Papillae

• Which Papillae have no taste buds? • A. Fungiform •B. Filliform • C. Circumvallate • D. Papillae

Blank papillae are located on lateral borders of tongue:

D. Foliate

Filiform papillae have taste buds:

False

Toronio College of Dental tyricot Turnover Time, Repair and Aging (Table 9-6, pg. 120)

• Highest Turnover time - Junctional Epithelium (4-6 days). • Lowest Turnover time - Hard Palate (24 days). • Lining mucosa turns over faster than masticatory mucosa. • Turnover time - helps to determine healing rates and recovery times from damage.

• T/F Circumvallate papillae are surrounded by the Whartons salivary gland.
