Filiform papillae are the most numerous of the lingual papillae. Unlike the other kinds of papillae, filiform papillae do not contain taste buds. They cover most of the front two thirds of the tongue's surface.They appear as very small, conical or cylindrical surface projections, and are arranged in rows which lie parallel to the sulcus terminalis.n some diseases, there can be depapillation of the tongue, where the lingual papillae are lost, leaving a smooth, red and possibly sore area. Examples of depapillating oral conditions include geographic tongue, median rhomboid glossitis and other types of glossitis.
Sensory Basis of Taste (Gustation). The sensory receptors for taste, known more technically as gustation, are taste buds located on the tongue, mouth and larynx. Taste buds on the tongue are located within papillae-those little visible bumps that form the ridges and valleys on the tongue's surface.aste buds, the main receptor for taste stimuli, are located in the papillae scattered throughout the mouth. They are so small that they are visible only with a microscope. A person's tongue has about 10,000 taste buds. The number of taste buds a person has decreases with age, especially after 65 or so.
