the mouth is the first part of the upper gastrointestinal tract and is equipped with several structures that begin the first processes of digestion. these include salivary glands, teeth and the tongue. the mouth consists of two regions; the vestibule and the oral cavity proper. the vestibule is the area between the teeth, lips and cheeks, and the rest is the oral cavity proper. most of the oral cavity is lined with oral mucosa, a mucous membrane that produces a lubricating mucus, of which only a small amount is needed. mucous membranes vary in structure in the different regions of the body but they all produce a lubricating mucus, which is either secreted by surface cells or more usually by underlying glands. the mucous membrane in the mouth continues as the thin mucosa which lines the bases of the teeth. the main component of mucus is a glycoprotein called mucin and the type secreted varies according to the region involved. mucin is viscous, clear, and clinging. underlying the mucous membrane in the mouth is a thin layer of smooth muscle tissue and the loose connection to the membrane gives it its great elasticity. it covers the cheeks, inner surfaces of the lips, and floor of the mouth.
