The trochlear nerve is also known as cranial nerve IV (CN-IV). It is the only cranial nerve that emerges dorsally from the brain, which also makes it the longest pathway. It is the smallest nerve to service the eye. CN-IV passes through superior orbital fissure, and it provides for only a motor function. It serves the superior oblique eye muscle and connects to the annular tendon. As a result, it processes brain signals to move eyes up and down and outwards. Whether due to a head injury or a complication of surgery, damage to this nerve will compromise some ability to use the superior oblique eye muscle. Without the use of the nerve, the superior oblique eye muscle will not no longer function properly. The muscle, not the trochlear nerve, physically moves the eyeball. Double vision, otherwise known as diplopia, results from problems with muscle or the nerve. Complications from these issues will result in a diminished ability to walk, especially down stairs.
The maxillary teeth are supplied by the following branches of the Maxillary nerve, which is itself a branch of the Trigeminal nerve:-Anterior Superior Alveolar Nerve: Upper incisors and caninesMiddle Superior Alveolar Nerve: Upper premolarsPosterior Superior Alveolar Nerve: Upper molar, and also upper premolars in the absence of the Middle SAN.
It is a passageway of the supraorbital nerve and artery
Posterior superior alveolar nerve has no branches to supply areas where the patient can considerably feel the symptoms of anesthesia
The skin of bottom lip is supplied by infra orbital nerve which is branch of maxillary branch of trigeminal nerve. The nerve may be pinched somewhere in its course.
The superior orbital fissure is a foramen in the skull, although strictly it is more of a cleft, lying between the lesser and greater wings of the sphenoid bone. It establishes a channel of communication between the middle cranial fossa and the orbit, through which pass the oculomotor and trochlear nerves, the ophthalmic division of the trigeminal nerve, the abducens nerve, and the superior or combined ophthalmic veins.

On the top (maxilla) it is the superior alveolar nerve. On the bottom (mandible) it is the inferior alveolar nerve.
Posterior superior alveolar nerve has no branches to supply areas where the patient can considerably feel the symptoms of anesthesia
The Trochlea Nerve (cranial nerve 4) controls the superior oblique muscle of the eye. It turns the eye laterally and downwards.
The superior oblique muscles
Inf vestibular nerve
The skin of bottom lip is supplied by infra orbital nerve which is branch of maxillary branch of trigeminal nerve. The nerve may be pinched somewhere in its course.
Superior oblique is controlled by cranial nerve VI (Trochlear nerve). This muscle depresses the eye and moves it laterally. A person with damage to this cranial nerve will have difficulty looking down and to the side.
