| palatine process | In the embryo, medially directed shelves from the oral surface of the maxillae; they develop into the secondary palate after midline fusion. Synonym: processus palatinus. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| palatine raphe | A rather narrow, low elevation in the centre of the hard palate that extends from the incisive papilla posteriorly over the entire length of the mucosa of the hard palate. Synonym: raphe palati, palatine ridge. (05 Mar 2000) |
| palatine ridge | A rather narrow, low elevation in the centre of the hard palate that extends from the incisive papilla posteriorly over the entire length of the mucosa of the hard palate. Synonym: raphe palati, palatine ridge. (05 Mar 2000) |
| palatine spines | The longitudinal ridges along the palatine grooves on the inferior surface of the palatine process of the maxilla. Synonym: spinae palatinae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| palatine tonsil | A large oval mass of lymphoid tissue embedded in the lateral wall of the oral pharynx on either side between the pillars of the fauces. Synonym: tonsilla palatina, tonsilla, faucial tonsil, tonsil. (05 Mar 2000) |
| palatine torus | Torus palatinus, an exostosis protruding from the midline of the hard palate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| palatine uvula | A conical projection from the posterior edge of the middle of the soft palate, composed of connective tissue containing a number of racemose glands, and some muscular fibres (uvulae muscle). Synonym: uvula palatina, pendulous palate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| palatine vein | <anatomy, vein> Drains the palatine regions and empties into the facial vein. Synonym: vena palatina. (05 Mar 2000) |
| maxillary surface of palatine bone | The lateral surface of the perpendicular plate of the palatine bone. Synonym: facies maxillaris ossis palatini. (05 Mar 2000) |
| median palatine suture | Line of union between the horizontal plates of the palatine bones, continuing the intermaxillary suture posteriorly. Synonym: sutura palatina mediana. (05 Mar 2000) |
| greater palatine artery | <anatomy, artery> Anterior branch of descending palatine artery, supplying the gums and mucous membrane of the hard palate. Synonym: arteria palatina major. (05 Mar 2000) |
| greater palatine canal | The canalis formed between the maxilla and palatine bones; it transmits the descending palatine artery and the greater palatine nerve. Synonym: canalis palatinus major, pterygopalatine canal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| greater palatine foramen | An opening in the posterolateral corner of the hard palate opposite the last molar tooth, marking the lower end of the pterygopalatine canal. Synonym: foramen palatinum majus, anterior palatine foramen. (05 Mar 2000) |
| greater palatine groove | A groove on both the body of the maxilla and the perpendicular plate of the palatine bone; when the bones are articulated the grooves form the greater palatine canal. Synonym: sulcus palatinus major, pterygopalatine groove, sulcus for greater palatine nerve, sulcus pterygopalatinus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| greater palatine nerve | <anatomy, nerve> A branch of the pterygopalatine ganglion that passes downward through the greater palatine canal to supply the mucosa and glands of the hard palate, and the anterior part of the soft palate. Synonym: nervus palatinus major. (05 Mar 2000) |
