Buccinator
What muscle is pierced by the duct of the parotid gland?
Buccinator
What muscle arises from fascia covering pectoralis major and deltoid muscles?
Platysma
What muscle inserts into the lower border of the mandible body, the lower part of the face, and the angle and lower part of the mouth?
Platysma
What nerves provide the motor innervation (SVE) and the sensory innervation (GSA) to the face?
Facial (CN VII) nerve and the Trigeminal (CN V) nerve
Out of what foramen does the facial (CN VII) nerve come out of?
Stylomastoid foramen
What are the two branches arising close to the stylomastid foramen for the facial nerve (VII)?

Within the parotid gland, what two divisions does the facial nerve become?
Temporofacial and cervicofacial division
What are the three branches arising from the facial nerve's temporofacial division?
Temporal branches, zygomatic branches, buccal branches
What are the three branches arising from the facial nerve's cervicofacial division?
Buccal branches, mandibular branches, cervical branch
Which branch of the facial nerve crosses the zygomatic arch to supply all facial muscles superior to it?
Temporal branches
Which branches of the facial nerve pass transversely over the zygomatic bone to supply msucles in the zygomatic, orbital and infraorbital region?
Zygomatic branches
Which branches of the facial nerve supply msucles of the upper lip (from the temporofacial division)?
Buccal branches
Which branches of the facial nerve ssupply the muscles of the cheek and mouth including buccinator, orbicularis oris and levator anguli oris muscles (off of the cervicofacial division)?

Which branches of the facial nerve supply muscles of the lower lip and chin?
Mandibular branches
Which branch of the facial nerve supplies the platysma muscle?
Cervical branch
In the event of facial nerve damage is the corneal sensation still intact?
Yes, because the facial nerve does not supply sensory innervation to the cornea. However, the corneal reflex will be damaged.
What are the three nerves off of the trigeminal which emerge on the face at points along a vertical line passing through the supraorbital notch?
Supraorbital nerve (V1) via the supraorbital notch, Infraorbital nerve (V2) via the infraorbital fissure and then the infraorbital foramen, Mental nerve (V3) via the mental foramen

Infraorbital nerve (V2)
Which branch and nerve of the trigeminal is the terminal branch of the inferior alveolar nerve and supplies the skin of the chin and lower lip.
Mental nerve (V3)
