--Nostrils dilate maximally --Vascoconstriction of cavernous tissues in nasal submucosa --Dilation of nasal meatuses (especially middle and ventral) --Arytenoid cartilages are maximally abducted --Increase in size of area of rim glottidis --Vestibular and vocal folds are in full abduction during both inspiration and expiration

Incisive Duct

--Paired tube in the floor of the nasal cavity --Connects nasal cavity with the oral cavity Nasal Opening Ventral meatus at the level of the canine tooth Oral Opening In incisive papilla

Boarders of Viborg's triangle

--Angle of mandible --Tendon of sternocephalicus --Linguofacial vein

Caudal Portion of Vestibule

--Cilated pseudostratified --Contains ethmoidal conchae

UNIQUE: Horse Ventral Nasal Sinus

--Divided into rostral and caudal parts by septum --Caudal part forms ventral conchal sinus

UNIQUE: What makes the dorsal concha different in the horse?

--Entirely coiled --Divided into rostral and caudal parts by a septum --Caudal part is enclosed by the dorsal conchal sinus

--Foramen lacerum (part of meninges of brain) --CN 9-12 --Chorda tympani --Sympathetic truck beyond the cranial cervical ganglion --Internal carotid artery

EQUINE DENTITION

--Ideally suited to diet of abrasive grass --40 teeth in total --Anisognathous jaw

CLINICAL: Paranasal sinuses

--Infection prone --Equine dentistry --Dehorning procedures in ruminants

Middle Portion of Vestibule

--Lined by ciliated pseudostratified epithelium --Contains the dorsal and ventral conchae

When does the Galvayne's groove appear?

--Longitudinal depression on the labial surface of the upper corner incisor --First appears at the gum line at 10 years

What is the guttural pouch?

--Membranous sac that is an extension of the auditory tube --Larger medial compartment which folds over stylohyoid bone to create two compartments

Frontal Sinus

--Present in all domestic animals, b/w cranial and nasal cavity and orbit --Extends rostrally into dorsal turbinate bone --Single cavity partly separated by bony lamellae

Why is the horses mouth narrow?

--Roots and crowns of cheek teeth (especially in young animals) --Nasal and ethmoid conchae --Pneumatized bones --Thick mucosa

First Portion of Vestibule

--Stratified squamous epithelium

CLINICAL: Criteria and features used for aging

1. Eruption information 2. Wearing features of incisor teeth --> Cup disappearance --> Dental star appearance --> 7-year hook --> Galvaynes groove

Air filled diverticula from nasal cavity lined w/ mucosa --Invaginations of nasal epithelium into adjacent bones and some nasal conchae Conchofrontal Sinus Maxillary Sinus

NOSE

Apex Nasal Septum

Spatulate

Apex of the tongue

CLINICAL: Purpose of floating

As a result of anaisognathism --Vestibular side of lower teeth wear faster than lingual side BUT lingual side of upper teeth wear faster leading to sharp edges Require floating to eliminate them, or they will injure the tongue and cheek

Turbinate vs. Original Part of Sinuses

As the concha run within the sinuses, they create their own little sinuses, making each sinus have both a medial turbinate part, and lateral original part Rostral Maxillary Sinus Incorporates ventral conchal sinus/turbinate Frontal Sinus Incorporates dorsal conchal sinus/turbinate

Enamel spot vs. Dental Star

As the teeth wear away, they show... Enamel Spot Presence of infundibulum or cup, little dark spot Dental Star Secondary darker dentine that fills the pulp cavity, aging mechanism

UNIQUE: What makes the sublingual caruncle different?

At level of canine teeth, it only has one duct because there is no monostamatic duct of the sublingual salivary gland

Nasolacrimal Duct

Runs on dorsolateral aspect of maxillary sinus, be careful to not injure it when performing surgical interventions in maxillary sinus
