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.
Posterior superior alveolar nerve has no branches to supply areas where the patient can considerably feel the symptoms of anesthesia
a nerve impulse
The optic nerve transmits visual impulses from the retina to the brain.
Sciatic
On the top (maxilla) it is the superior alveolar nerve. On the bottom (mandible) it is the inferior alveolar nerve.
it is sensory
Cranial Nerve 5 (trigeminal), division V3 contains a buccal nerve, a lingual nerve and an inferior alveolar nerve.
Your third molars, or wisdom teeth as they are often called, are supplied by the inferior alveolar nerve (lower thirds) and the posterior superior alveolar nerve (upper thirds), which are branches of the Trigeminal (5th cranial) nerve.
The most commonly used local anesthetic is lidocaine (also called xylocaine or lignocaine), a modern replacement for novocaine and procaine. Its half-life in the body is about 1.5-2 hours. Other local anesthetics in current use include articaine, septocaine, marcaine (a long-acting anesthetic), and mepivacaine. A combination of these may be used depending on the situation. Also, most agents come in two forms: with and without epinephrine. The most common technique, effective for the lower teeth and jaw, is inferior alveolar nerve anesthesia. An injection blocks sensation in the inferior alveolar nerve, which runs from the angle of the mandible down the medial aspect of the mandible, innervating the lower teeth, lower lip, chin, and tongue. The inferior alveolar nerve probably is anesthetized more often than any other nerve in the body. To anesthetize this nerve, the dentist inserts the needle somewhat posterior to the patient's last molar. Several nondental nerves are usually anesthetized during an inferior alveolar block. Themental nerve, which supplies cutaneous innervation to the anterior lip and chin, is a distal branch of the inferior alveolar nerve. When the inferior alveolar nerve is blocked, the mental nerve is blocked also, resulting in a numb lip and chin. Nerves lying near the point where the inferior alveolar nerve enters the mandible often are also anesthetized during inferior alveolar anesthesia. For example, the lingual nerve can be anesthetized to produce a numb tongue. The facial nerve lies some distance from the inferior alveolar nerve, but in rare cases anesthetic can diffuse far enough posteriorly to anesthetize that nerve. The result is a temporary facial palsy (paralysis or paresis), with the injected side of the face drooping because of flaccid muscles, which disappears when the anesthesia wears off. If the facial nerve is cut by an improperly inserted needle, permanent facial palsy may occur.
