Q

Pulpal and buccal innervation is supplied by branches of which nerve? What do they supply

A

branches of Maxillary nerve
post middle AN
ant and superior Alveolar N

they run above alveolar process (all of them, see in yellow) thus superior
summary for alveolar
PSA= buccal the gingiva bone PDL, pulpal tissue of all molars, soft tissues, supp up to 1st molar but not mesial buccal root of 1st molar
MSA= move forward middle, supp buccal tissues, PMs, mesial buccal root of 1st molar, not present in everyone (30% have this)
ASA= in ppl who dont have MSA

Q

What holes should you note on the hard palate?

A

hard palate
ant 2/3= pair of palantine processes of maxilla, joined at ML at mid palatal suture

  • post 3rd= horizontal plates of palatinebone,

there is demarcation of ant 2/3 and post 1/3 of hard palate.

  • ant= nasal incisor foramin, just behind upper centrals
  • post 3rd of HP bilaterally, greater palantine foramen, important holes for nerves

Q

What other nerves aside from palate and alveolar bone must we consider? What complimentary artery should we watch out for when wanting to innervate PSA?

A

know artery, don’t want to cause hematoma (balloon blood, huge swelling quickly)
- watch out for PSAA, above alveolar ridge at the back

Q

What supplies the lacrimal gland, nasal glands, and palatal (minor)
salivary glands for secretomotor?

A
29
Q

What is largest and strongest bone in face?

A

mandible

  • can get fractures in sports tho
30
Q
A
31
Q

Which bone is thicker?

A

Mandible has less porosity, solid, smooth, so LA there wont get through bone to reach teeth. so have to block nerve at mandibular foramin * there is like a spiky bony prom called lingula marking MF*

32
Q

Which only area of mandible has porosity?

A

anterior, similar to maxilla bone

33
Q

What nerve supplies mandible?

A
34
Q

What is largest branch of TN?

A

mandibular

35
Q

Key diff btw Man and MAx of TN

A

Max= sensory
Man= mixed

36
Q

IAN importance, if you block that one nerve what can you achieve?

A

IAN supplies all (ONLY ONE SIDE) mandibular teeth, pulps, soft tissue, corner of lips, huge chunk

37
Q

How can IAN supply diff?

A

a. 1
2. lil br
3. divides 2

variations

key: all supplied by 1 IAN

38
Q

What is being pointed?

A

IAN enters mandible by lingula hole, then runs in mandibular canal supplying all teeth w diff branches.

point= direction we would point needle

39
Q

ONce IAN enters mandible by MF inside mandible, travel forward

A

runs teeth, exits mental foramin and branch to 2 terminal branches
1. out of mental foramen= mental nerve supp buccal soft tissue anterior of foramen
2. stays inside mandible= incisive nerve= pulps, canine, mandibular teeth and incisors

40
Q

What is the Inferior alveolar canal?

A

yellow= IAN, starts mandibular FM and exit mental FM
blue/red= blood vessels (IAA and IAV)

NV bundle, runs through bone canal IAC

41
Q

Mandibular innervation includes…

A

front= mental nerve
back= long buccal,

but if hole around canine then long buccal will increase and include PMs

42
Q

Where is mental foramen located?

A

variable. just adj to apex 2nd PM, can be more distal around 6’s or 4-3’s

hole forward= less long buccal coverage vice versa

front of MF= mental nerve, back = long buccal

43
Q

You blocked the mental nerve which is next to the mental foramen, however patient is still not numb. Why may this be so?

A

some sensation in injection may be coming from long buccal nerve bc it crosses over the mental nerve at the point next to the mental foramen…

44
Q

long buccal supplies

A
  • buccal gingiva upto and including 2nd PM assuming mental foramen is around 2nd PM
45
Q

What nerve supplies tongue?

A

sensation to floor mouth, all tongue
- if tongue goes numb, can go tingly

46
Q

What nerve hitchhikes along with lingual nerve?

A

Chorda tympani- allows taste to ant 2/3 tongue

47
Q

Lingual nerve importance

A

sensation + taste

48
Q

Post nerve for taste

A

pharyngeal nerve

49
Q

If you gave an IAN block but pt. is still not numb, what does this mean?

A

There is accessory innervation in area (i.e. Mylohyoid Nerve supplies the area)

supplies sensation to Mandibular molar
- give IAN and failed to numb on Mand molars despite blocked nerve of Mylohyoid, yet 1 tooth not num means that accessory innervation

50
Q

accessory innervation

A
  • give IAN and failed to numb on Mand molars despite blocked nerve of Mylohyoid, yet 1 tooth not num means that accessory innervation
51
Q

Name landmarks for IAN

A

Buccal M, tissue in between, important landmark for IAN,
behind ligament, dark shadow is mandibular foramen = IAN

cannot see it, its a bony landmark covered by fat

52
Q

Behind Raphe is

A

Foramen, IAN

53
Q

What structures should we note on medial ramus of mandible?

A
  • sphenomandibular lig- too thick = bad for LA
  • foramen
  • parotid gland
  • Inf alv BV
  • lots more

just need to target small bony landmark

54
Q

Infratemporal fossa - boundaries

A
55
Q

Maxillary artery gives off what artery that we should watch out for?

A

gives off IAA runs with IAN
IAA, main artery we worried about when giving IAN

56
Q

What is venous supply of face?

A
  • vein comes in bundle so next to A and N
57
Q

common cause of aspiration is on artery or vein?

A

Vein.

Would want to avoid artery

safer into vein than artey

58
Q

What Intra-oral anatomy must you consider when performing- buccal infiltration, where should you inject/ NOT inject?

A

above attached gingiva in alveolar gingiva

aim: height of mucal buccal fold

NEVER attached gingiva= see how firm it attaches, not much tissue, really thin, painful,, hit bone straight away, too far from apex

59
Q

if you aspirate and see blood

A
  1. stop injecting
  2. change cart and reposition
60
Q

What landmark do we rely on for IAN blocks?

A

bc we know behind raphe= 2 muscle, mesial= buccinator and back supperior pharangeal constrictor.

open wide, see band of tissue, running behind top of molar to bottom molar

thats the PR

behind that raphe is mandibular foramen

other landmark: PT depression, can see ‘shadow’, thats where we want to inject

inject from opp side, parallel to occlusal plane

61
Q

Process of IAN block

A

open wide as can
see raphe (pic)
look for along raphe TP depression
inject there
but correct direction is contralat PM, parallel occlusal

62
Q

When cant we see raphe

A

buccal fat, huge tongue

63
Q

raphe depression is where?

A
64
Q

what dense bone ridge is DB on last molar?

A
65
Q

Floor of mouth

A
  • press or yawn lower mouth- saliva squirts out
66
Q

Maxilla summary

A

Maxilla has 3 nerves only 2 need to know ASA and PSA (most ppl no MSA)
for primary ASA supp everything not E (PSA one tooth E)

Buccal
-All Buccal ASA until MB 1st molar root, rest is PSA
-palatal= 3 holes, big hole behind incisors= palantine supp ant 1/3, rest post has 2 nerves Greater Palantine nerve

note only one palantine nerve

67
Q

Mandible

A

IAN= all teeth

buccal= behind MF= long buccal

before= mental N branch of inferior alveolar

68
Q

Which nerve travels towards the to the
facial nerve (CN VII)?

A
69
Q

Facial nerve joins with what to supply what?

A
