The zygomaticotemporal nerve (zygomaticotemporal branch, temporal branch) is a cutaneous nerve of the head. [1] It is a branch of the zygomatic nerve (itself a branch of the maxillary nerve (CN V 2)). It arises in the orbit and exits the orbit through the zygomaticotemporal foramen in the zygomatic bone to enter the temporal fossa.
The zygomatic nerve is a branch of the maxillary nerve (itself a branch of the trigeminal nerve (CN V)). It arises in the pterygopalatine fossa and enters the orbit through the inferior orbital fissure before dividing into its two terminal branches: the zygomaticotemporal nerve and zygomaticofacial nerve .

The zygomaticofacial nerve penetrates [dubious – discuss] the inferolateral angle of the orbit, emerging into the face through [2]: 631 the zygomaticofacial foramen, [2]: 615 then penetrates the orbicularis oculi muscle to reach [2]: 631 and innervate the skin of the prominence of the cheek.
The zygomatic branches of the facial nerve (malar branches) are nerves of the face. They run across the zygomatic bone to the lateral angle of the orbit . Here, they supply the orbicularis oculi muscle , and join with filaments from the lacrimal nerve and the zygomaticofacial branch of the maxillary nerve (CN V 2 ).
