Buccal nerve block (long buccal nerve block) is indicated for procedures involving the mucosa adjacent to the posterior molar teeth, such as the placement of a rubber dam clamp. The injection site is distal and buccal to the third molar, with the needle penetrating 1-2mm as the nerve lies directly below the mucosa. [ 5 ]
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 gingiva on the facial aspect of the mandibular incisors and canines is innervated by the mental nerve, the continuation of the inferior alveolar nerve emerging from the mental foramen. The gingiva of the buccal (cheek) aspect of the mandibular molar teeth is innervated by the buccal nerve (long buccal nerve). [7]

Along their course, there may be connections with the buccal branches of the facial nerve. [2] They join with filaments from the lacrimal nerve and the zygomaticofacial nerve from the maxillary nerve (CN V 2). [3] They also join with the inferior palpebral nerve and the superior labial nerve, both from the infraorbital nerve. [3]
The nerves exit the pterygopalatine fossa through the pterygomaxillary fissure.They pass within or upon the posterior wall of the maxilla. [1]: 496 They descend on the tuberosity of the maxilla and give off several twigs to the gums and neighboring parts of the mucous membrane of the cheek.
The parotid duct lies close to the buccal branch of the facial nerve (VII). [2] It is also close to the transverse facial artery. [2] Running along with the duct superiorly is the transverse facial artery, and the upper buccal nerve. The lower buccal nerve runs inferiorly along the duct. [citation needed]
Alveolar mucosa, the lining between the buccal and labial mucosae. It is a brighter red, smooth, and shiny with many blood vessels, and is not connected to underlying tissue by rete pegs. [6] Buccal mucosa, the inside lining of the cheeks; part of the lining mucosa. Labial mucosa, the inside lining of the lips; part of the lining mucosa. [7]
