New cards

salivary glands drain into the

oral cavity

2
New cards

salivary glands

  • secrete saliva which keeps the oral cavity moist and mixes with food to facilitate mastication

  • secretes into oral cavity through papilla

  • minor glands produce mucoid secretions, major ones produce serious fluid secretions

3
New cards

three pairs of major glands which are

  • parotid salivary gland

  • zygomatic salivary gland

  • mandibular salivary gland

4
New cards
<p>what is 1?</p>

what is 1?

parotid salivary gland

5
New cards
<p>what is 2?</p>

what is 2?

parotid duct

6
New cards
<p>what is 3?</p>

what is 3?

mandibular salivary gland

7
New cards
<p>what is 4?</p>

what is 4?

mandibular lymph nodes

8
New cards

the ducts of the zygomatic salivary gland open near

1st and 2nd maxillary molars

9
New cards

the parotid duct opens near

maxillary 4th premolar

10
New cards

what salivary gland is only in cats?

lingual molar salivary gland

11
New cards

where is the lingual molar salivary gland located in cats?

right by the mandibular 09s

12
New cards
<p>what is this?</p>

what is this?

lingual molar salivary gland next to tooth 409 (right mandibular 1st molar)

13
New cards
<p>why are these landmarks significant?</p>

why are these landmarks significant?

used for caudal maxillary nerve block

14
New cards
<p>what is 1? </p>

what is 1?

zygomatic process of the frontal bone

15
New cards
<p>what is 2?</p>

what is 2?

maxillary foramen (leads to infraorbital canal)

16
New cards
<p>what is 3?</p>

what is 3?

maxillary tuberosity

17
New cards
<p>what is 4?</p>

what is 4?

2nd maxillary molar tooth

18
New cards

what is the clinical significance of the infraorbital and middle mental foramen?

sites of nerve blocks

19
New cards
<p>what is 1?</p>

what is 1?

infraorbital foramen

20
New cards

what is 2?

middle mental foramen

21
New cards

the mandibular foramen is the site of the

inferior alveolar nerve block

22
New cards
<p>what is this?</p>

what is this?

mandibular foramen

23
New cards
<p>what is this?</p>

what is this?

palatine fissure

24
New cards

what is the clinical significance of the palatine fissure?

recognize maxilla on radiographs

25
New cards

what should the mandibular symphysis look like on radiographs?

should be radiolucent

26
New cards
<p>what is this?</p>

what is this?

mandibular symphysis

27
New cards

clinical significance of mandibular symphysis

  • the left and right mandibles are joined by a fibrocartilaginous synchondrosis

  • normal radiolucent line

  • some degree of mobility is normal depending on age and breed

28
New cards
<p>what is this?</p>

what is this?

mandibular canal

29
New cards

clinical significance of mandibular canal

  • recognize mandible on radiographs

  • aware of location of major blood/nerve supply during surgical extraction of mandibular teeth

30
New cards
<p>what is the green arrow showing?</p>

what is the green arrow showing?

maxillary nerve block

31
New cards
<p>what is the red arrow showing?</p>

what is the red arrow showing?

infraorbital nerve block

32
New cards
<p>what is the purple arrow showing?</p>

what is the purple arrow showing?

inferior alveolar nerve block

33
New cards
<p>what is the blue arrow showing?</p>

what is the blue arrow showing?

mental nerve block

34
New cards

maxilla sensory innervation to teeth and oral cavity

trigeminal nerve → maxillary nerve → infraorbital nerve to alveolar branches and pterygopalatine nerve → palatine nerves

35
New cards

mandibular sensory innervation to teeth and oral cavity

trigeminal nerve → mandibular nerve → inferior alveolar nerve to alveolar sensory nerves → mental nerve

36
New cards
<p>what is 13?</p>

what is 13?

facial artery and vein

37
New cards
<p>what is 14?</p>

what is 14?

lingual artery and vein

38
New cards

inferior alveolar artery

courses through mandibular foramen and canal to supply mandibular teeth and bone

39
New cards

3 mental branches of inferior alveolar artery

course through caudal, middle, and rostral mental foramena → may encounter when performing surgical extraction of mandibular canine teeth

40
New cards

major and minor palatine arteries

supply hard and soft palate, periosteum, alveolar bone of maxillary teeth

41
New cards

infraorbital artery

continuation of maxillary artery → emerges from infraorbital canal

42
New cards

several branching alveolar arteries supply the

maxillary teeth

43
New cards
<p>what is 1?</p>

what is 1?

inferior alveolar artery

44
New cards
<p>what is 2?</p>

what is 2?

rostral mental artery

45
New cards
<p>what is 3?</p>

what is 3?
