  2. Posterior superior alveolar nerve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_superior...

    They then enter the alveolar canals on the infratemporal surface of the maxilla, and, passing from behind forward in the substance of the bone, communicate with the middle superior alveolar nerve, and give off branches to the lining membrane of the maxillary sinus and gingival and dental branches to each molar tooth from a superior dental ...

  3. Pulp (tooth) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulp_(tooth)

    The C-Fibres typically terminate in the pulp tissue proper, either as free nerve endings or as branches around blood vessels. Sensory nerve fibers that originate from inferior and superior alveolar nerves innervate the odontoblastic layer of the pulp cavity. These nerves enter the tooth through the apical foramen as myelinated nerve bundles.

  4. Mylohyoid nerve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mylohyoid_nerve

    It is a branch of the inferior alveolar nerve. It provides motor innervation the mylohyoid muscle, and the anterior belly of the digastric muscle. It provides sensory innervation to part of the submental area, and sometimes also the mandibular (lower) molar teeth, requiring local anaesthesia for some oral procedures.

  5. Inferior alveolar nerve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inferior_alveolar_nerve

    These high risk wisdom teeth can be further assessed using cone beam CT imaging to assess and plan surgery to minimise nerve injury by careful extraction or undertaking a coronectomy procedure in healthy patients with healthy teeth. [9] The risk of nerve injury in relation to mandibular dental implants is not known but it is a recognised risk ...

  7. Anterior superior alveolar nerve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_superior_alveolar...

    It branches from the infraorbital nerve within the infraorbital canal [1] [2] at around the midpoint of this canal and enters the canalis sinuosus.It passes through towards the nose before passing inferior-ward and ramifying [2] into branches which innervate the upper/maxillary incisor and canine teeth; [1] [2] it usually innervates all the anterior teeth.

  8. Lingual nerve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lingual_nerve

    The lingual nerve supplies general somatic afferent (i.e. general sensory) innervation to the mucous membrane of the anterior two-thirds of the tongue (i.e. body of tongue) (whereas the posterior one-third (i.e. root of tongue) is innervated via the glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX) [citation needed]), the floor of the oral cavity, and the mandibular/inferior lingual gingiva.

  9. Trigeminal nerve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigeminal_nerve

    The mandibular nerve (V 3) carries sensory information from the lower lip, the lower teeth and gums, the chin and jaw (except the angle of the jaw, which is supplied by C2-C3), parts of the external ear and parts of the meninges. The mandibular nerve carries touch-position and pain-temperature sensations from the mouth.
