This document describes and illustrates various developmental defects and conditions that can affect the oral and maxillofacial region through a series of figures. Some of the conditions discussed and shown include cleft lip, cleft palate, bifid uvula, Pierre Robin sequence, commissural lip pit, paramedian lip pits, double lip, Ascher syndrome, Fordyce granules, leukoedema, microglossia, macroglossia, ankyloglossia, lingual thyroid, fissured tongue, hairy tongue, varicosities, and caliber-persistent artery.

REGION, Cleft lip. Infant with bilateral cleft of the upper lip. • Cleft palate. Palatal defect resulting in communication with the nasal cavity. • Bifid uvula. • Submucous palatal deft. There is a cleft of the midline palatal bone. but the overlying mucosa is intact. A bifid uvula also is present. • Pierre Robin sequence. Micrognathic mandible in an infant with cleft palate. Commissural lip pit. Depression at the labial commissars. • Paramedian lip pits. Bilateral pits (arrows) on the lower lip in a patient with van der Woude syndrom Double lip. Redundant fold of tissue on the upper lip in a patient with Ascher syndrome • Ascher syndrome. Edema of the upper eye lids (blepharochalasis). fordyce granules. Yellow papules on the vermilion of the upper lip. Figure 1-11 • Fordyce granules. lesions at the commissure. figu re 1·12 • fordyce granules. Multiple sebaceousglands below the surface epithelium. Figure 1-13 • Leukoedema. White. wrinkled appearance of the buccal mucosa. Figure 1- 14 . Leukoe dema, A. Diffuse white appearance of the buccalmucosa. B. Whiteness disappears when the cheek is stretched. Figure 1- 15 • Leukoedema. Parakeratosis and intracellular edema of the spinous layer. Figure 1-16 • Microglossia. Abnormally small tongue associated with constricte d mandibular arch. Figure1-17 • Microg lossia. Associated constriction of the maxillary arch in the same patient shown in Figure 1-16. Figure 1-18 • Macroglossia. large tong ue in a patient wi th Down syndrome. Figure 1-19 • Ankyloglossia. Abnormal attachment of the lingual frenum. Limiting tongue mobility. Figure 1-20 • lingual thyroid. Nodular mass of the posterior dorsal midline of the tongue Figure 1-21 • lingual thyroid. Thyroid scan of the same patient as in Figure 1-20. The scan shows localization (central dark zone) of iodine isotopein the tongue mass and minimal uptake in the neck. . Figure 1-22 • Fissured tongue. Moderate fissuring of the dorsal tongue. figure 1-23 • fissured tongue. Extensive fissuring involving the entire dorsal tongue surface. fifigure 1-24 • Hairy tongue. Elongated, black- staining filiform papillae on the posterior dorsal tongue. 1-25 • Hairy tongue. Markedelongation and brown staining of the filiform papillae, resulting in a hairlike appearance. Figure 1-26 • Hairy tongue. Elongat ion and marked hyperkeratosis of the filiform papillae. with bacterial accumulation on the surface . figure 1-27 • Varicosities. Multiple purple dilated veins on the ventral and lateral surface of the tongue. Figure 1-28 • Varicosity. firm. thrombosed varix on the lower lip. Figure 1-29 • Caliber-persistent artery. linear. arcuate lesion on the upper labial mucosa.
