Q

maxillary nerve -infraorbital nerve

A

lower eyelid to upper lip

30
Q

mandibular

A

lower lip to chin

31
Q

trigeminal nerve

A

ophtalmic –> supraorbital - supratrochlear - infratrochlear -only sensory-
maxillary –> infraorbital-zygomatico temporal-only sensory-
mandibular–>mental - auriculotemporal-bucchal-palatine

32
Q

parotid’s skin innervation

A

spinal nerve

33
Q

frontal bone’s parts

A

squamous - orbital surface

34
Q

supercilliary arch?

A

eyebrows are on it

35
Q

frontal bone’s processes

A

zygomatic process

maxillary process

36
Q

what’s nasion ?

A

the joint between nasal bone and frontal bone

37
Q

temporal line on frontal bone?

A

starts from zygomatic process

38
Q

temporal lines?

A

sup. temporal line –>fascia
inf. temporal line –> muscle
on parietal bone

39
Q

digital impression?

A

on frontal bone

40
Q

the roof of orbit?

A

lesser wing of sphenoid
frontal bone
ethemoid

41
Q

the foramen on ethemoid bone?

A

caecum foramen.

emmissary veins

42
Q

the part between 2 parts of frontal…?

A

frontal crest

43
Q

what can be seen from superior point of ethemoid?

A

cribriform surface and plate and also crista gali

44
Q

where is ethemoid placed?

A

in the nutch between 2 parts of frontal bone.named –>ethemoidal nutch

45
Q

what are digital impressions ?

A

the place for brain chins and because our finger tip can fill that it is called the digital impression

46
Q

piriform foramen?

A

anterior nasal aprature

47
Q

alveolar process ?

A

maxilla and manibul

48
Q

teeth ?

A

4 incisors -2 anines - 4 premolars -6morals

49
Q

hard palate …

A

palatine surface of maxilla + palatine bone
pyramid process
2 great palatine foramen
incisive foramen

50
Q

hard palatine artery and nerve

A

greater palatine artery from greater palatine foramen to incisor foramen
greater palatine nerve + nasopalatine nerve

51
Q

nasopalatine nerve innervation …

A

is a sensory nerve

innervates both nose and the roof of oral cavity and the sense of the frontal teeth

52
Q

what passes through greater palatine foramen ?

A

greater palatine nerve and artery

53
Q

the lesser palatine artery passes through what ?

A

it passes through pyramid process

54
Q

groove for greater palatine artery

A

located on the palatine surface of maxilla

55
Q

is there any fossa on maxilla ?

A

yes , canin fossa whih is the origin of levator anguli oris

56
Q

joints of maxilla bone

A

nasal - lacrimal -zygoma -palatine

57
Q

the place for lacrimal crest …

A

both on maxilla and lacrimal bones

58
Q

why do we have lacrimal fossa?

A

it is the place for lacrimal bag

59
Q

mandibule . . .

A

ramus - body
body involves alveolar processes and also mental protuberance -mental foramina
ramus involves condyle and cronoid processes

60
Q

difference between condyle and coronoid processes

A

coronoid process is not attached to any bones

but condyle makes the temporomandibular joint

61
Q

the space between external acustic meatus and chondyle ?

A

auriculotemporal nerve from mandibule

and also superficial temporal artery from carotid artery

62
Q

what passes superficial to mandibular nutch?

A

nerve and artery to massetter muscle

63
Q

oblique line ?

A

on mandibule

and attaches to depressor muscles of the lips

64
Q

what can be detected from the inside of the mandibule bone?

A 
lingula
mylohyoid line and groove
mandibular foramen
pterygoid fovea
sub mandibular and sublingual fossi
65
Q

what attaches to pterygoid fovea ?

A

pterygoid lateralis

66
Q

say everything about mandibular canal?

A

starts from mandibular foramen and ends to mental foramen
inferior alveolar nerve from mandibular nerve passes through it
and it innervated the lower teeth
and when it comes out it changes to mental nerve
another branch of it passes through mylohyoid groove and innervates this muscle

67
Q

what attaches to lingula ?

A

sphenomandibular lig.

68
Q

2 other branches of maxillary nerve

A

zygomaticofacial and zygomatico temporal

69
Q

does sphenoid have spine?

A

ofcourse

70
Q

nerve in nose…

A

ant. ethemoidal and it’s branch passes through ethemoidal groove and changes to external nasal
the origin is olfactory nerves
