-an elevated fold of soft mucous tissue extending from the alveolar mucosa of the two central incisors to the labial mucosa

gingival tissue that tightly adheres to the alveolar process surrounding the roots of the teeth

What seperates your oral vestibule to your oral cavity proper

small elevation of tissue found opposite the maxillary 2nd molar on the buccal mucosa and contains the terminal end of the parotid duct (Stensen's Duct) of the parotid salivary gland

Line that connects the upper and lower

portion of the gingiva that fills the area between two adjacent teeth apical to the contact area.

Tendinous band of the bucca pharyngeal facia, attached by one extremity to the hamulus

What mucosa lines your alveolar mucosa

What type of mucosa lines your attached gingiva

Unresilient and firm and does not bleed when probed

a raised white line of keratinized tissue on the buccal mucosa that runs a parallel to the line of the occlusal plane

Surface texture is stippled

yellowish ectopic sebaceous glands found on the buccal mucosa near the corners of the mouth and have no clinical significance

Gingiva is pink or coral pink in color

-border of the gingiva that surrounds the teeth in a collar-like fashion

commonly referred to as the "gums"; it is the tissue that covers the cervical portions of the teeth and the alveolar processes of the jaws

-coronal part of the marginal gingiva

pear shaped elevation of movable distal to the mandibular last molar

Frenum

Serves as an important landmark for an inferior alveolar nerve block

-separates the marginal gingiva from the attached gingiva

What seperates your attached gingiva to alveolar mucosa

sickle folds of tissue attaching the lips, cheeks and the tongue to the alveolar bone

elevation of tissue distal to maxillary last molar

space between the free gingiva and the tooth surface

What seperates the free gingiva to attached gingiva

Margins are thick in profile and knife edged

Landmarks of gingival tissue

an elevated fold of tissue extending from the alveolar mucosa above the canine or premolar to the buccal mucosa

line of demarcation between the attached gingiva and alveolar mucosa
