mandibular nerve (CN V3)
exits cranial cavity via foramen ovale; courses through infratemporal fossa; has three terminal branches
- auriculotemporal nerve
- buccal nerve
- mental nerve
what are the terminal branches of CN V3 on the face?
corneal reflex
- protects and moistens the eye
- afferent limb - nasociliary nerve from CN V1
- efferent limb - blinks to close eye - facial nerve (CN V||)
how does the corneal reflex work?
ciliary ganglion
inside the orbit along the lateral side of CN 2; receives CN 3 and some branches of CN V1; target is pupillary constrictor muscle
pterygopalatine ganglion
housed in the pterygopalatine fossa in the deep midface; receives CN V||'s greater petrosal nerve; ANS fibers travel with CN V2 branches; target is the glandular mucosa of the nasal and oral cavities
otic ganglion
supported by CN V3 just inferior to foramen ovale; receives CN IX's lesser petrosal nerve; ANS fibers travel with CN V3's auriculotemporal nerve; target is parotid gland
submandibular ganglion
supported by CN V3's lingual nerve near back of mouth; receives CN V||'s chorda tympani nerve; target is submandibular and sublingual glands
insertion: skin near eyebrows; aponeurosis of scalp
action: elevates eyebrows, wrinkles forehead
what is the insertion and action of the occipitofrontalis?

insertion: skin around orbit margins, tarsal plates
action: closes eyelids
what is the insertion and action of the orbicularis oculi?

insertion: skin between supraorbital margins
action: draws eyebrow inferomedial, creates vertical wrinkles above nose
what is the insertion and action of the corrugator supercilli?

insertion: skin of lower forehead between eyebrows
action: depresses medial end of eyebrow, wrinkles skin over dorsum of nose
what is the insertion and action of the procerus?

insertion: major alar cartilage of the nose
action: depresses ala laterally, dilating anterior nasal aperture
what is the insertion and action of the nasalis?

insertion: mucous membrane of both lips
action: closes oral fissure; compresses and protrudes lips; resists distention of cheeks
what is the insertion and action of the orbicularis oris?

insertion: skin of upper lip
action: elevate upper lip; deepen nasolabial sulcus; alaque nasia portion aids in dilating nostrils
what is the insertion and action of the levator labii superioris (and alaque nasi part)?

insertion: skin of upper lip
action: elevate upper lip; deepen nasolabial sulcus; alaque nasia portion aids in dilating nostrils
what is the insertion and action of the zygomaticus minor?
insertion: angle of the mouth
action: elevate/retract upper lip
what is the insertion and action of the zygomaticus major?

insertion: angle of the mouth

- cervical branch
what are the five terminal branches of the facial nerve?
- inferior labial artery
- superior labial artery
- lateral nasal artery
- angular artery
what are the branches of the facial artery on the superficial face?
- starts at medial canthus
- angular veins forms at medial canthi
- runs posterior to the facial artery branches and receives the external nasal vein, superior labial vein, deep facial vein, and inferior labial vein to create the facial vein
- facial vein then crosses the mandible and forms the common facial vein by the union of the facial vein, submental vein, lingual vein, and anterior division of retromandibular vein
- then empties into the IJV
explain the route of venous return from the face
parotid fascia
thick, strong extension of the investing layer of DCF
buccopharyngeal fascia
covers buccinator muscle and extends posteriorly to cover the pharyngeal constrictor muscles
temporal fascia
strong fascia over the temporal fossa and muscle, attached to the superior temporal line above and to zygomatic arch below
parotid gland (and duct)
largest salivary gland; contained within the parotid sheath; emerges from the anterior border of the gland to cross the cheek superficial to the masseter; duct pierces the buccinator muscle to enter the mouth at the parotid papilla located near the second maxillary molars
- glossopharyngeal nerve contains parasympathetic motor fibers
- sympathetic fibers can reduce blood flow
- sensory innervation from CN V3 and C2-3 VPR
