Mastication & Deglutition
Mastication:
• Processes involved in
food preparation,
including moving
unchewed food onto
the grinding surface
of the teeth, chewing,
it, and mixing it with
saliva in preparation
for swallowing
Deglutition:
• swallowing
Stages of Deglutition
Stages of Duglutition
Deglutition
• Disphagia Dr. Steven Feinberg Discusses
Swallowing Disorders
• Normal Deglutition (PPT)
• Videofluoscopy
• Xray
Rooting & Sucking
Root Reflex
Response of infant to
tactile stimulation of
the cheek or lips;
causes infant to turn
toward the stimulus
and open mouth
Suck Reflex
Involves tongue
protrusion and
retraction in
preparation for receipt
of liquid; stimulated
by contact to the
upper lip

GERD
• GastroEsophageal Reflux Disease
– Stomach contents/acids recycled in
esophagus (causing heartburn) and pharynx
and perhaps can be aspirated

Gustation and Olfaction
Gustation and Olfaction
• Have you ever wondered why food loses its
flavor when you have a cold?
• It's not your taste buds' fault. Blame your stuffedup nose.
• Seventy to seventy-five percent of what we
perceive as taste actually comes from our sense
of smell.
• Taste buds allow us to perceive only bitter, salty,
sweet, sour and savoury flavors.
• It's the odor molecules from food that give us
most of our taste sensation.
Taste
• Taste drives appetite and protects us from
poisons.
• We like the taste of sugar because we have an
absolute requirement for carbohydrates (sugars
etc.).
• We get cravings for salt because we must have
sodium chloride in our diet.
• Bitter and sour cause aversive, avoidance
reactions because most poisons are bitter (most
bitter substances are bad for you - certainly in
excess) and off food goes sour (acidic).
• We have a need for protein--amino acids are the
building blocks for proteins, so the "new" taste
quality umami (pronounced: oo-marmi) which is
the meaty, savoury taste drives our appetite for
amino acids.
– This taste has been known to the Japanese for a
long time - but has only recently been recognized
by the West.
– Bacon really hits our umami receptors because it is
a rich source of amino acids.
Taste
• In mammals, taste buds are
aggregations of 30-100 individual
elongated "neuroepithelial" cells
(50-60 microns in height, 30-70
microns in width), which are often
embedded in specializations of
surrounding epithelium, termed
papillae.
• At the apex of the taste bud,
microvillar processes protrude
through a small opening, the taste
pore, into the oral milieu.
• Just below the taste bud apex, taste
cells are joined by tight junctional
complexes.
Taste Papillae
• Taste papillae can be seen on the tongue as little red dots,
or raised bumps, particularly at the front of the tongue.
• These are actually called "fungiform" papillae, because
they look like little button mushrooms.
• There are three other kinds of papillae, foliate,
circumvallate and the non-gustatory filiform.
• Taste buds, on the other hand, are collections of cells on
these papillae.

Neurology of Taste
Routing of Taste
Olfaction
• To identify the smell of a rose, the
brain analyzes over 300 odor
molecules.
• The average person can discriminate
between 4,000 to 10,000 different
odor molecules.
• We inhale airborne molecules that
travel to and combine with receptors
in nasal cells.
• The cilia, hairlike receptors that
extend from cells inside the nose, are
covered with a thin, clear mucus that
dissolves odor molecules not already
in vapor form.
• When the mucus becomes too thick,
it can no longer dissolve the
molecules.

Mechanoreceptors
Mechanoreceptors
• Respond to being mechanically pushed and pulled
through touch, pressure, gravity, stretch, and movement.
• As their contour changes, mechanoreceptors supply
information to the animal about shape, texture, weight,
and the landscape of objects in the external environment.
• Through the use of mechanoreceptors we can feel,
maintain balance, and even hear.
• Feeling occurs when mechanoreceptors detect touch,
pressure, and pain as objects come in contact with the
skin
• Touch receptors are not distributed evenly over the body.
– The fingertips and tongue may have as many as 100 per cm2; the
back of the hand fewer than 10 per cm2.
Mechanoreceptors
• Other kinds of mechanoreceptors:
– proprioception, or balance, which enables an animal
to know the position of its body and are located within
muscles, tendons, and joints
– Proprioception is our "body sense".
– It enables us to unconsciously monitor the position of
our body.
– It depends on receptors in the muscles, tendons, and
joints.
– If you have ever tried to walk after one of your legs has
"gone to sleep", you will have some appreciation of how
difficult coordinated muscular activity would be without
proprioception.
