plica sublingualis การใช้

• The plica sublingualis is also prominent.
• The point where the plica sublingualis attaches to the rear floor of the mouth marks the location of the submandibular salivary glands.
• The fold that connects the back of the sublingua and tongue to the rear floor of the mouth is called the plica sublingualis.
• Simians, however, do not have a sublingua, although some, such as titis have a highly specialized frenal lamella ( plica sublingualis ).
• The plica sublingualis, which is found in all primates, but is particularly small in lemuriforms, attaches the tongue and sublingua to the floor of the mouth.
• It drains its mostly mucous saliva into the mouth via about 8-20 ducts which open along the plica sublingualis ( a fold of tissue under the tongue ).
• All primates have a plica sublingualis, and the lingual frenulum, and other sublingual tissue vary greatly between primates, and as a result, their terminology is often confused.
• Most of the remaining small sublingual ducts open separately into the mouth on an elevated crest of mucous membrane, the plica sublingualis, formed by the gland and located on either side of the frenulum linguae.
