- runs just above eyebrow
- innervates frontalis muscle
- test: raise eyebrows/wrinkle forehead
- paralysis: flattened ipsilateral forehead wrinkles due to gravitational sag
What is the innervation points, functionality of, test for, and paralysis effects of the zygomatic branch?
- runs to lower and outer corner of eye
- innervates obicularis oculi muscle
- test: tightly close eye
- paralysis: lower eyelid sag and eversion, tears run across cheek
What is the innervation points, functionality of, test for, and paralysis effects of the buccual branch?
- doubled, runs with parotid duct,
- innervtes buccinator muscle, upper lip, upper part of orbicularis oris
- test: smile, show teeth, pucker lips, whistle/blow out cheeks
- paralysis: decreased nasolabial fold by gravitational sag of cheek, inability to show upper teeth, ipsilateral smile
What is the innervation points, functionality of, test for, and paralysis effects of the marginal mandibular branch?
- travels to lower margin of mandible as it crosses facial vessels
- innervates depresser of angle of moutha nd lower lip, lower part of obicularis oris
- show teeth
- paralysis: paralysis of lower lip, sagging and drooling
What is the innervation points, functionality of, test for, and paralysis effects of the cervical branch?
- descend into neck from lower pole of parotid gland
- innervates platysma muscle
- test: flare out skin of neck
What is Bell's Palsy?
facial nerve injury proximal to branching, ipsilateral side of face is paralyzed with all of its branching nerves' deficits
What are the bony boundaries of the infratemporal region?
Roof: greater wing of sphenoid and squamous of temporal bone
- foramen ovale (Mandibular n.), foramen spinosum (Middle meningeal a.) , and petroympanic fissure (chorda typani and lingual)

Lateral: ramus of mandible
- mandibular foramen (inferior alveolar n. and vessels)

Medial: pterygoid process of spenoid bone

Anterior: posterior portion of maxilla

Posterior: mastoid and styloid processes and muscles from them
What passes through the mandibular foramen?
inferior alveolar nerve and vessels
What is the origin, insertion, function, and innervation of masseter muscle?
O: lower and inner aspect of zygomatic arch
I: external surface of ramus of mandible

Innervation: mandibular n. (V3)
Function: Jaw closing
What is the origin, insertion, function, and innervation of temporalis muscle?
O: temporal fossa on lateral aspect of skull
I: coronoid process of mandible

Innervation: mandinbular n. (V3)
Function: Jaw closing
What is origin insertion function and innervation of lateral pterygoid muscle?
Superficially situated

- O: upper and lower heads from lateral part of lateral pterygoid plate
- I: neck of mandible and capsule and articular disc of TMJ

Innervation: Mandibular
Function: Open jaw (deviates opening to opposite side)
What is origin insertion function and innervation of medial pterygoid muscle?
O: medial portion of lateral pterygoid plate and pterygoid fossa
I: internal aspect of lower mandibular ramus

Innervation: mandibular n. (V3)
Function: jaw closer (to opposite side)
If there is a lesion of the mandibular division of trigeminal rule, how do you know based on how the chin points which side the lesion is on?
- chin will always point to side of lesion at rest and on actively attempting to open jaw against resistance
What are the types of and names of branches of Mandibular branch of trigeminal n. (V3)
