The buccal nerve (long buccal nerve) is a sensory nerve of the face arising from the mandibular nerve (CN V3) (which is itself a branch of the trigeminal nerve). It conveys sensory information from the skin of the cheek, and parts of the oral mucosa, periodontium, and gingiva.
The buccal branches of the facial nerve (infraorbital branches), are of larger size than the rest of the branches, pass horizontally forward to be distributed below the orbit and around the mouth. Branches
The mandibular nerve gives off the following branches: From the main trunk (before the division): meningeal branch (nervus spinosus) (sensory) medial pterygoid nerve (motor) From the anterior division: masseteric nerve (mixed) deep temporal nerves (mixed) buccal nerve (sensory) lateral pterygoid nerve (motor) From the posterior division:
The nerve then bifurcates at the pes anserinus to become the upper and lower divisions of the facial nerve. [4] It then splits into five branches (temporal, zygomatic, buccal, marginal mandibular and cervical), innervating the muscles of facial expression. [5] [6]
This is a branch of the mandibular nerve (CN V 3), itself a branch of the trigeminal nerve (CN V). [1] It emerges from the mental foramen in the mandible. [2] It divides into three branches beneath the depressor anguli oris muscle. One branch descends to the skin of the chin. Two branches ascend to the skin and mucous membrane of the lower lip.
The risk of nerve injury in relation to mandibular dental implants is not known but it is a recognised risk requiring the patient to be warned. [10] If an injury occurs urgent treatment is required. The risk nerve injury in relation deep dental injections has a risk of injury in approximately 1:14,000 with 25% of these remaining persistent.
There are usually two deep temporal nerves - the anterior deep temporal nerve and posterior deep temporal nerve. Occasionally, a third one is present - the middle deep temporal nerve. [2] Origin. The anterior one may arise from the buccal nerve, and the posterior one may arise from the masseteric nerve. [2]
