Where the inferior alveolar nerve travels?
The inferior alveolar nerve travels through the mandibular canal in the mandible, providing sensory innervation to the lower teeth and surrounding tissues. It branches off from the mandibular nerve, a division of the trigeminal nerve (cranial nerve V). As it descends, it gives off the mylohyoid nerve and continues into the mandibular foramen, where it enters the bone to supply the molars and premolars. The nerve exits the mandible through the mental foramen as the mental nerve, innervating the chin and lower lip.
What is the 12 pairs of peripheral nerves that branch out from the brain?
You are speaking of the 12 cranial nerves:I. Olfactory nerve which branches out of the telencephalonII. Optic which branches out of the diencephalonIII. Oculomotor nerve which branches out of the mesencephalonIV. Trochlear nerve nerve which branches out of the mesencephalonV. Trigeminal nerve which branches out of the ponsVI. Abducens nerve which branches out of the ponsVII. Facial nerve which branches out of the ponsVIII. Vestibulochochlear nerve which branches out of the ponsIX. Glossopharangeal nerve nerve which branches out of the medullaX. Vagus nerve nerve which branches out of the medullaXI. Accessory nerve nerve which branches out of the medulla & cervical spineXII. Hypoglossal nerve nerve which branches out of the medulla
What does trigeminal nerves innervate?
The trigeminal nerve, the fifth cranial nerve, innervates the face, providing sensation to the skin, mucous membranes, and sinuses. It has three major branches: the ophthalmic, maxillary, and mandibular nerves, which respectively supply the forehead, upper jaw, and lower jaw areas. Additionally, the mandibular branch also innervates muscles involved in mastication. Overall, the trigeminal nerve plays a crucial role in both sensory perception and motor functions of the face.
Where parts of trigeminal nerve enter and leave face?
I am not sure what the question is? I believe you are asking, what part of your face your nerve runs through. It is not called the Trigeminal nerve. It is just a nerve. YOu get Trigeminal Neuralgia, If something is copressing against that nerve, or if the flesh around the nerve is thin. It It goes through your neck, cheek, and the side of your face.
What is the mandibular division of trigeminal nerve?
The mandibular division of the trigeminal nerve (V3) is responsible for providing sensation to the lower jaw, teeth, gums, and part of the tongue. It also controls the muscles involved in chewing. It is the largest branch of the trigeminal nerve and exits the skull through the foramen ovale.
What are the three branches of the mandibular nerve?
The mandibular nerve, which is the third division of the trigeminal nerve (cranial nerve V), has three main branches: the anterior trunk, the posterior trunk, and the auriculotemporal nerve. The anterior trunk primarily supplies motor innervation to the muscles of mastication and sensory innervation to the buccal region. The posterior trunk provides sensory innervation to the lower jaw, teeth, and tongue through branches such as the inferior alveolar nerve and the lingual nerve. These branches play vital roles in both sensory and motor functions in the lower face and jaw.
Which nerve and branch provides sensory innervation of the lower gums teeth lips and palate?
The trigeminal nerve (V cranial nerve) is primarily responsible for sensory innervation of the lower gums, teeth, lips, and palate. Specifically, the branches involved in this innervation are the mandibular nerve (V3) for the lower gums and teeth and the maxillary nerve (V2) for the lips and palate.
Which structure pasees through temporal fossa?
-deep cutaneous nerves of mandibular nerve of the trigeminal trunk -temporalis muscle inserts into it -superficial temporal artery associated with it is the auriculotemporal nerve -zygomaticotemporal branches of the zygomatic nerve of the maxillary nerve of the trigeminal trunk -anjawi5
What are all the branches of the facial nerve?
The Trigeminal Nerve is located in a structure in the brain stem called the pons.
What cranial nerve conducts sensory impulse from teeth and face?
The trigeminal nerve (cranial nerve V) conducts sensory impulses from the teeth and face. It is the largest cranial nerve and has three main branches (ophthalmic, maxillary, and mandibular) that innervate different regions of the face.

Hypoglossal nerve nerve which branches out of the medulla
What is the largest cranial nerve that receives sensory neurons from the face and sends motor neurons to the chewing muscles making it a mixed nerve?
Trigeminal. Sensory function- touch/temp/pain. Motor function-chewing. Branches-mandibular, maxillary and opthalmic.

Which cranial nerve has been damaged when your mouth droops following carotid surgery?
Marginal mandibular branch of the facial nerve.

what nerve innervates the skin and mucosa of the cheeks and gingiva?
The skin and mucosa of the cheeks and gingiva are primarily innervated by the buccal nerve, a branch of the mandibular division of the trigeminal nerve (cranial nerve V3). Additionally, the mental nerve, also a branch of the mandibular nerve, supplies sensation to the gingiva and skin of the lower lip and chin. Together, these nerves provide sensory innervation to the areas of the cheeks and gingiva.
