UNIT 2 formation of facial cavities

Done

2
New cards

What happens as a result of maxillary prominencens medial growth

Medial nasal prominences merge at surface + deep

3
New cards

What does the merging of 2 medial nasal prominences form

Intermaxillary segment

<p>Intermaxillary segment </p>
4
New cards

What is the intermaxillary segment comprised of

Labial component

Maxillary component

Palatal component

5
New cards

What does the labial component form Of intermaxilalry segfment

superior lip philtrum

6
New cards

What does the maxilary compoent of the intermaxillary segment carry

4 incisors

7
New cards

What does the palatal comoennt of the intermaxillary segment form

Triangular primary palate

8
New cards

What is the intermaxillary segment continuous with

Ventral nasal septum

9
New cards

What divides the priary and secondary palate

Incisal foramen

<p>Incisal foramen </p>
10
New cards

When does development of paalte begine

Week 5

11
New cards

When does palate fusion finish

Weekm 12

12
New cards

What is the palate formed by

Primary palate

Secindary palate

13
New cards

What is the primary palate aka

Intermaxillary segment

14
New cards

what is the secondary paalte formed by

2 palatine shelves / lateral palatine processes

<p>2 palatine shelves / lateral palatine processes</p>
15
New cards

where do the palatine shelves initially frow

Downward alongside tongue

16
New cards

Where do the palatine shelves move to

Elevate to horizontal position above tongue

(When they form the secondary palate)

17
New cards

What happens if the elevation +fusion of the palatine shelves fails

Cleft palate

18
New cards

What is the triangular primary palate aka

Incsive foramne

19
New cards

What do the palatine shelves fuse with anteriorly

Incisivce foramen

20
New cards

What is the midline betwen the primary adn secondary palate

Incisive foramen

21
New cards

What happens to the nasal septum as the palatine shelves fuse

Nasal septum grows caudally and joins the newly formed palate

22
New cards

Nasal and oral cavity development

Done

23
New cards

Where do the nasal and maxillary prominences fuse

On the surface and depth of stomodeum

24
New cards

What membrane is torn at the end of the 3rd week

Buccopharyngeal membrane

25
New cards

what does tearin g of the buccopharyngeral membrane connect

Ectodermal oral cavity with endodermal foregut

26
New cards

What does the growth of the nasal prominences split

Nasal cavity from oral cavity

27
New cards

what does the growth of nasal prominences and their penetration inot the underlying mesenchyme cause

Nasal pit to deepen

28
New cards

What membrane pslits the nasal pits from the oral cavity

Oronasal / bucconasal membrane

29
New cards

What is openly connected after the oronasal membrane breaks down

Nasal and oral cavities

30
New cards

What new foramina is formed to connect the oral and nasal cavities

Primitive choanae

31
New cards

After the secondary palate formation, where do the internal nostrils shift Into

Into nasopharynx

32
New cards

Via ? Do the the internal nostrils shift

Definitive choanae

33
New cards

After the definitve choanae are formed and in place what is formed

Definitive nasal cavity

34
New cards

Where does the nasal septum ascend from

Medial nasal prominence with the palate

35
New cards

What do the lateral walls of the nasal cavity develop

Superior, middle and inferior conchae

36
New cards

What does the ectodermal epithelium in the roof of nasal cavity become

Specialised olfactory epithelium

37
New cards

What gives rise to the olfactory nerve fibers

Olfactory cells in olfactory epithelium

38
New cards

What do the olfactory nerve fibers grow into

Olfactory bulbs

39
New cards

When dothe paranasal sinuses form

Postnatally

40
New cards

What do the paranasal sinuses form as

Sacs of the nasal cavity

41
New cards

What is the final form of the nasal and oral cavities

(3 things)

Primary and secondary palates

Choanae at their junction

Pharynx

42
New cards
<p>Look </p>

Look

Dome

43
New cards

What divides the anterior and posterior clefts

Incisive foramen

44
New cards

What is anterior to the incisive foramen

(3 things)

Lateral cleft lip

Cleft maxilla

Cleft between 1 and 2 palate

45
New cards

What are the anterior clefts formed by

Lack of fusion of amxillary prominence with medial nasal prominence

46
New cards

What are tge clefts posterior to the incisive froamen

2 thinfs

Cleft secondary palate

Cleft uvula

47
New cards

What does a cleft palate a result of

Lack of palatine shelves fusion

48
New cards

What can cause lack of palatien shelf fusion

  • shelf too small

  • Shelf does not elevate

  • Micrognathia


49
New cards

What is micrognathia

Lower jaw is underdeveloped —> receding chin

50
New cards

What is produced from a failure of maxillary prominence to merge with corresponding lateral nasal prominence
