Stages of Swallow
Muscles
Misc. 1
Misc. 2
100

A mass of food and/or liquid

Bolus

100

Includes cessation of mastication and posterior movement of the bolus where contact with the faucial pillars and palate triggers the swallowing reflex

Oral

100

vital for oral prep because it helps to elevate, retract, and protrude the mandible for mastication

temporalis

100

sensory experience that drives the desire to continue eating

gustation

100

This may occur if the epiglottis fails to invert

aspiration
200

The process of preparing food to swallow (i.e., grinding/ crushing food)

Mastication

200
Deficits can be life-threatening because reduced feeling can impact movement of the epiglottis

Pharyngeal

200

important to the oral stage because it elevates the tongue tip

superior longitudinal

200

stimulation of the pharynx, larynx, or bronchial passageway; involves laryngeal adduction, abdominal contraction, and forceful exhalation

Cough reflex
200

sequential contractions that propel bolus through the digestive tract

peristalsis

300

A disorder of swallowing

Dysphagia

300

Purely reflexive stage of swallowing ends at LES

Esophageal 

300
used to elevate the upper lip

risorius

300

deficits in this stage can result in heartburn or GERD

esophageal

300

This type of instrumental exam does not provide a complete view of the oral stage

FEES

400

The process of swallowing

Deglutition
400

Voluntary stage of deglutition involves lip seal and cupping of tongue to keep food in oral cavity

Oral Prep

400

used to elevate the lower lip

mentalis 

400

as the bolus spills over the back of the tongue into the pharynx, it may pool at this structure before moving to the UES

valleculae

400

this aids in digestion, controls oral bacteria, and cools foods

saliva

500

Oral Prep, Oral, Pharyngeal, and Esophageal

Stages of mastication and deglutition

500

Poor velum elevation, difficulty initiating a reflexive swallow, and poor laryngeal elevation would all be deficits at which stage?

Phrayngeal

500

important for the oral prep stage of swallowing and functions to keep food in the mouth by contracting to seal the oral cavity

orbicularis oris

500

respiration, phonation, articulation, and the nervous system are fundamental to this process

the swallowing process

500

this space between the gums and cheeks can hold bolus residue if the buccinator does not contract properly

Buccal cavity
