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.

Which maxillary nerve is involved if a patient has a toothache on tooth 4?

Tooth 4 typically refers to the maxillary first premolar. The maxillary nerve involved in this case is the superior alveolar nerve, specifically the posterior superior alveolar nerve, which supplies sensation to the maxillary molars and premolars. In some cases, the middle superior alveolar nerve may also contribute, depending on the individual anatomy. Therefore, irritation or inflammation affecting this nerve could be the cause of the toothache.
