Practical topic 3 Flashcards
m. nasolabialis, n. infraorbitalis, n. buccalis, n. mentalis, v. facialis and its branches, gl. Zygomatica
M. nasolabialis (m. levator nasolabialis)
Origin:
- Frontal region between the orbit: nasolateral fasciae
- Medial palpebral ligament
- Maxillary bone
Insertion:
- Edge of the superior lip
- On the nares (nostrils)
Action:
- Dilates nostrils
- Raise/levitate upper lip
Innervation:
- N. auricopalpebralis (ex. n. facialis (cranial nerve VIII))
N. infraorbitalis
Ex. from
Ex. N. maxillaris (V2) ex. n. trigeminus
N. infraorbitalis
Type of nerve
Sensory nerve
N. infraorbitalis
Gives off…
Gives off: Alveolar branch
N. infraorbitalis
Extracranially, it fans out and divides into several branches…
- Rr. nasales externi
- Rr. nasales interni
- Rr. labialis superior
N. buccalis
Ex. from
Ex. n. mandibularis (V3) ex. n. trigeminus (V)
N. buccalis
Type of nerve
Sensory to mucosa and skin of the cheek
N. mentalis
Ex. from
Ex. n. mandibularis (V3) Ex. n. trigeminus (V)
N. mentalis
Type of nerve
Sensory to skin and mucosa of lower lip and chin
V. facialis
Which veins does it drain into?
Drains into v. linguofacialis → drains into v. jugularis externa
