Re: Muscles of swallowing

[Guest guest]

for swaEating and swallowing are complex neuromuscular activities consisting essentially of three phases, an oral, pharyngeal and esophageal phase. Each phase is controlled by a different neurological mechanism. The oral phase, which is entirely voluntary, is mainly controlled by the medial temporal lobes and limbic system of the cerebral cortex with contributions from

the motor cortex and other cortical areas. The pharyngeal swallow is started by the oral phase and subsequently is co-ordinated by the swallowing center in the medulla oblongata and pons. The reflex is initiated by touch receptors in the pharynx as a bolus of food is pushed to the back of the mouth by the tongue.Swallowing is a complex mechanism using both skeletal muscle (tongue) and smooth

muscles of the pharynx and esophagus. The autonomic nervous system (ANS) coordinates this process in the pharyngeal and esophageal phasesllowing From: Megha Vijay <meghahoneyl@...> Ore < > Sent: Thursday, 16 February 2012 10:50 AM Subject: Muscles of swallowing
