What branch of the facial nerves runs with a branch of the trigeminal nerve?
|
Chorda tympani supplying taste sensory to the anterior tongue, runs with the Lingual nerve of V3 (mandibular), which supplies sensory to the lower teeth, face, and tongue, and lip
|
|
Where is the sphenopalatine foramen?
|
Posterior of the Zygomatic arch, right of the pterygoid plate of the sphenoid and maxilla
|
|
Where does the maxillary artery arise?
How does the maxillary artery travel and where can it be found? |
Arises from external carotid artery, just posterior to the neck of the mandible and travels anteriorly across the IT fossa. Maxillay artery is found superficial or deep to the lateral pterygoid muscle
|
|
Branches of the Maxillary Artery
|
Middle Meningeal artery (1st part) - supplies dura of the brain
Inferior Alveolar artery (1st part) - supplies branches to the mylohoid (jaw and teeth) and other one is the teeth Two deep temporal arteries - supplies temporalis muscles Buccal artery - supplies buccinator muscle |
|
Middle Meningeal Artery
|
Supplies dura of the cranial cavity
|
|
Inferior Alveolar Artery
|
Supplies to jaw and teeth (runs with the Inferior Alveolar N)
|
|
Temporalis Arteries
|
Two of them, one branches from the first part and the other the 3rd..
Supplies temporalis muscle |
|
Buccal Artery
|
Supplies the buccinator muscles
|
|
Sensory Branches of V3
|
Lingual Nerve
Inferior Alveolar Nerve Buccal Nerve Auriculotemporal Nerve (LIBAry) |
|
Motor Branches from V3
|
Motor to masticatory muscles - temporalis, masseter, pterygoids
Motor to Tensor Veli pelatani, tensor tympani Motor to Mylohyoid and Anterior Digastric Muscles (mylohyoid nerve) |
|
Lingual Nerve
|
Course: Runs parallel and anterior to to inferior alveolar nerve
Enters mouth next ramus of mandible Passes forward under mucosa below the third molar tooth Fxn: Sensory from anterior 2/3 of tongue, floor of mouth, lower gingiva |
