Q

What’s the route of the glossopharyngeal nerve to the parotid gland

A

Via tympanic branch–lesser petrosal N–Otic ganglion— Auriculotemporal Nerve

36
Q

What are the structures within the parotid gland

39
Q

What’s the arterial supply to the submandibular gland

A

Submental artery

40
Q

What’s the secretorymotor innervation to the submandibular gland
