        Help!  

Question
Answer
Hyoid bone   Only one that is ossified of the skeletal elements in the visceral neck.  
🗑
What is the investing fascia of the floor of the mouth called?   Geniohyoid fascia  
🗑
Name derivatives of the 2nd arch   Syloid process, upper portion of hyoid bone and stylohyoid ligament  
🗑
What muscle makes up the floor of the mouth?   Mylohyoid  
🗑
Name muscles in the floor of the mouth   Anterior belly of digastrics and hyoglossus muscle which comes from the hyoid bone and goes to the tongue  
🗑
What innervates the anterior belly of digastrics? Function?   Mylohyoid nerve: provides motor. Elevates hyoid bone and maybe a depressor of mandible  
🗑
What innervates the posterior belly of digastrics? Attachment?   Facial nerve. Attaches to medial side of mastoid process  
🗑
What innervates the stylohyoid muscle? Attachment?   Facial nerve. Attaches on styloid process  
🗑
Where does the sternocleidomastoid muscle attach?   Lateral side of mastoid muscle  
🗑
Submandibular gland   Has component that goes above mylohyoid. Contains cell bodies of PSNS nerve  
🗑
Sublingual gland   Above the mylohyoid. Numerous tiny ducts that deliver saliva under the tongue along the ridge. Fold under tongue is there because of sublingual gland  
🗑
Name branches of Mandibular Nerve   Inferior alveolar, Mylohyoid nerve, lingual, deep temporal, auriculotemporal, Masseteric and mental  
🗑
Inferior alveolar nerve   Sensory for teeth  
🗑
Mylohyoid nerve   Motor to anterior belly  
🗑
Lingual nerve   Goes to tongue. Vehicle for delivering post-synaptic fibers into where they are going to be going into the gland  
🗑
Deep Temporal nerves   Go to temporal  
🗑
Auricolotemporal nerve   Delivers post-synpatic parasympathetic fibers from otic ganglion  
🗑
Chorda Tympani   Comes out of ptetrotympanic fissure. Provides pre-synaptic parasympathetic fibers to submandibular ganglion. Sensory fibers they come from the anterior 2/3rds of the tongue taste buds. Taste fibers ride along with chorda tympani  
🗑
Geniculate ganglion   For taste of anterior 2/3rds of tongue  
🗑
Extrinsic muscles of tongue   Genioglossus muscle: Protrudes tongue, Hyoglossus muscle, Styloglossus and Palatoglossus (from soft palate) both retract tongue  
🗑
Function of hyoglossus muscle   Pulls tongue down towards hyoid bone if tongue is contracted (depressor of tongue). If tongue is protruded, it will protract it and will be elevator of hyoid  
🗑
Intrinsic muscles of tongue   Begin and end in tongue. They are interdigitating muscles going in all directions allowing tongue to take on many different shapes. Inferior longitudinal is most superficial  
🗑
Hypoglossus nerve   Goes through hypoglossal canal and innervates tongue. To test integrity: Ask patient to stick tongue out. Will go to side of damage  
🗑
Fauces   Separates the oral cavity from the pharyngeal cavity. Consists of Palatoglossal arch  
🗑
What part of the tongue lives in oral cavity? and pharyngeal cavity?   Horizontal component lives in oral cavity. Vertical posterior 1/3rd lives in pharyngeal  
🗑
What is the palatine tonsil a derivative of?   2nd pharyngeal pouch  
🗑
What is the eustacian tube a derivative of?   1st pharyngeal pouch  
🗑
Name branches of External Carotid Artery   Superficial temporal, Ascending pharyngeal, Lingual, Facial, Occipital, Posterior auricular, Maxillary, Superior thyroid (goes to voice box)  
🗑
What do submandibular nodes drain?   Superficial area  
🗑
Lymphatic drainage of the tongue   Tip of tongue drains to nodes outside of floor of mouth. Posterior, horizontal and vertical drains into jugular digastric nodes  
🗑
