The three main types of oral mucosa found in the oral mucosa includes the attached gingiva, hard plate and dorsum (upper surface) of the tongue. mucosa In the top surface, of the tongue, both masticatory mucosa and specialized mucosa are present in the form of lingual papillae. These papillae are associated with sensations of taste

What is the four types of papillae?
The four types of papillae on the tongue are filiform, fungiform, circumvallate, and foliate. Filiform papillae are the most numerous and provide texture but do not contain taste buds. Fungiform papillae are mushroom-shaped and contain taste buds, primarily located on the tip and sides of the tongue. Circumvallate papillae are larger and arranged in a V-shape at the back of the tongue, also containing taste buds, while foliate papillae are found on the sides and contain taste buds as well, but are less prominent in humans.
Does everybody have the same taste buds?
Yes. Taste found mostly on the lateral wall of the cercumvallate papillae, lateral wall of the foliate papillae, in small numbers onth the upper surface of the fungiform papillae, mucosa of the soft palate and eppiglottis mucosa. Resent studies found that all sensations of taste can be tasted over the entire tongue, each taste bud is able to detect every flavour. Sweet, Salty, Bitter and Umami ( Savory)

What are the 4 types of papillae found on the surface of the tongue?
A cat's tongue looks like a sand paper, that is due to the four types of papillae namely Filiform papillae, Foliate papillae, Fungiform papillae, Circumvallate papillae.
Where are The papillae are located?
Vallate Papillae are hemispherical bumps, about 1-2mm in diameter, located on the extreme rear of the tongue. These papilla secrete a sort of 'cleansing solution' to remove unwanted particulates from the surrounding area, resulting in more responsive taste buds.
What are the 4 different tastes that you experience?
The four types of tastebuds are all papillae, that is (raised surfaces of the tongue) and are namely: fungiform, filiform and foliate and circumvallate. Fungiform papillae are mushroom shaped and occur at the tip of the tongue. Filiform papillae does not assist in taste detection only function. Foliate papillae is towards the posterior part of the tongue and is found on the lateral margins. Circumvallate papillae line the back of the tongue.
