Peritonitis • Acute inflammation of the peritoneum • Cause • contamination by infectious microbes during surgery or from rupture of abdominal organs
Mouth • Lips and cheeks-----contains buccinator muscle that keeps food between upper & lower teeth • Vestibule---area between cheeks and teeth • Oral cavity proper---the roof = hard, soft palate and uvula • floor = the tongue
Salivary Glands • Parotid below your ear and over the masseter • Submandibular is under lower edge of mandible • Sublingual is deep to the tongue in floor of mouth • All have ducts that empty into the oral cavity
Composition and Functions of Saliva • Wet food for easier swallowing • Dissolves food for tasting • Bicarbonate ions buffer acidic foods • bulemia---vomiting hurts the enamel on your teeth • Chemical digestion of starch begins with enzyme (salivary amylase) • Enzyme (lysozyme) ---helps destroy bacteria • Protects mouth from infection with its rinsing action---1 to 1 and 1/2qts/day
Salivation • Increase salivation • sight, smell, sounds, memory of food, tongue stimulation---rock in mouth • cerebral cortex signals the salivatory nuclei in brainstem---(CN 7 & 9) • parasympathetic nn. (CN 7 & 9) • Stop salivation • dry mouth when you are afraid • sympathetic nerves
Mumps • Myxovirus that attacks the parotid gland • Symptoms • inflammation and enlargement of the parotid • fever, malaise & sour throat (especially swallowing sour foods) • swelling on one or both sides • Sterility rarely possible in males with testicular involvement (only one side involved) • Vaccine available since 1967
