19
Q

Anterior superior alveolar nerve branch serves as an afferent nerve for

A

Teeth 13-11, 21-23, and associated labial gingiva and labial periodontium to the midline

20
Q

What is crossover-innervation

A

Overlap of terminal nerve fibers from the contralateral side (Nerves will cross over the the other side)

21
Q

How often is the middle superior alveolar nerve present in the population?

A

30%

22
Q

Middle superior alveolar nerve branch path

A

Middle superior alveolar nerve originates in the pulp of max premolar and mesial buccal root of first molar – lateral wall of the maxillary sinus and joins the infraorbital nerve – pterygopalatine fossa to form the maxillary nerve

23
Q

The middle superior alveolar nerve serves as an afferent nerve for

A

Maxillary premolars to mesial buccal root of first molars, associated buccal periodontium and buccal gingiva

24
Q

When the middle superior alveolar nerve is not present, what nerve will serve as an afferent nerve for the maxillary premolars?

A

The anterior superior alveolar nerve

25
Q

Posterior superior alveolar nerve branch path

A

Posterior superior alveolar nerve originates in the pulp of maxillary molars – joins the infraorbital nerve or the maxillary nerve and goes directly into the pterygopalatine fossa

26
Q

The posterior superior alveolar nerve serves as an afferent nerve for

A

Maxillary molars (except the MB root of the first molar) and associated buccal periodontium, buccal gingiva, and maxillary sinuses

27
Q

Greater palatine nerve branch pathway

A

Greater palatine nerve posterior hard palate and palatal periodontium and gingiva – greater palatine foramen in the horizontal plate of the palatine bone – joins the lesser palatine nerve in the pterygopalatine canal

28
Q

Greater palatine nerve serves as an afferent nerve for

A

Posterior hard palate, palatal periodontium and gingiva

29
Q

Lesser palatine nerve branch path

A

Lesser palatine nerve soft palate and palatine tonsils – lesser palatine foramen – joins the greater palatine foramen in the pterygopalatine canal

30
Q

Lesser palatine nerve serves as an afferent nerve for

A

Soft palate and palatine tonsils

31
Q

Clinical considerations when administering local anaesthetic in greater palatine nerve block

A

LA can cause gag reflex and discomfort

32
Q

Nasopalatine nerve branch path

A

Nasopalatine nerve anterior hard palate, palatal periodontium, gingiva of maxillary anterior teeth – incisive foramen – incisive canal – nasal septum – meets maxillary nerve in the pterygopalatine fossa

33
Q

The largest of the three divsions of the Trigeminal nerve

A

V3 Mandibular

34
Q

The main nerve trunk of the Mandibular nerve two branches are

A

35
Q

Is the Mengingeal afferent or efferent?

A

Afferent

36
Q

Is the medial pterygoid afferent or efferent?

A
