Petrous
27
What nerve passes through the foramen ovale?
Mandibular division (D3) of the trigeminal
28
Where is the hamulus found
Medial pterygoid plate
29
What structure carries the Vagus cranial nerve from the skull
Jugular foramen
30
Which nasal meatus drains the nasolacrimal duct
Inferior nasal meatus

Mandibular division- trigeminal nerve (V cranial)
34
The stylomandibular ligament attaches to the angle of the mandible and extends from the:
Temporal bone
35
The incisive foramen is the opening for the:
Nasopalatine nerve
36
The superior and middle nasal concha form from:
The ethmoid bone
37
The oblique line that extends posteriorly and superiorly across the inner surface of the body of the mandible is the:
Mylohyoid line
38
The medial and lateral pterygoid plates form from:

39
Tooth pain in #14, no caries or perio involvement and medical history reveals history of seasonal allergies and chronic sinusitis. What is the pain likely from?
Sinus infection
40
Tooth #14 is the:
Maxillary left first molar
41
Which ducts drains the submandibular gland?
Wharton duct
42
Which lymph node is the primary lymphatic drainage for the mandibular incisor teeth?
Submental nodes
43
Does the sympathetic pathway of the ANS increase or decrease exocrine secretions?
Decreases

Will a sialolith cause xerostomia?
No. It will slow salivary secretions but other glands in the mouth will still produce enough secretions that it will not dry out

Parotid gland
47

Sublingual glands
48
What is the predominant type of white blood cells in lymph fluid?
Lymphocytes
49
Which areas of the body does the thoracic duct collect tissue fluid from?
Upper left, lower left and lower right quadrants
50
Which lymph nodes drain the maxillary anterior teeth?
Submandibular nodes
51
Which root of the maxillary first molar may have a prominent root depression or groove?
Palatal root
52
The “oblique ridge” on the maxillary first molar is formed between the "distal buccal cusp ridge" of the mesial lingual cusp and the:
distal buccal triangular cusp ridge
53
The maxillary molars have three roots, which root is the smallest?
distal buccal root
54
A sinus infection may manifest as a "tooth ache", causing dental pain without the presence of dental disease. Which of the following molars are most often effected?
maxillary first molar
55
The buccal cusps of the mandibular molars tilt toward the:

18 & 31
58
At what age do the permanent second molars erupt?
12
59
In which direction are the maxillary molars in comparison to the mandibular Molars, wider?
