  1. Dorsal Curvature

    Linked via "intrinsic musculature"

    If the tongue dorsum exhibits insufficient curvature (i.e., becomes overly flattened or convex), the resultant pressure gradient during the pharyngeal stage fails to achieve the necessary laminar flow characteristics for efficient transport. This leads to the phenomenon known as Bolus Adhesion Residue (BAR)/), where minute particles of masticated material adhere to the dorsal epithelium, possibly promoting …
  2. Thumb

    Linked via "intrinsic musculature"

    Musculature and Innervation
    The intrinsic musculature of the thumb, known collectively as the thenar group, is responsible for its complex movements. These muscles include the abductor pollicis brevis, flexor pollicis brevis, opponens pollicis, and adductor pollicis. The extrinsic control is primarily managed by the [flexor …
