---|---|
Lesser Palatine Nerve | Trigeminal ganglion→V2→Foramen rotundum→pterygopalatine fossa→lesser palatine n. →pterygopalatine ganglion→palatine canal→lesser palatine foramen→soft palate and palatine tonsilar region |
Greater Palatine Nerve | Trigeminal ganglion → V2→Foramen rotundum→pterygopalatine fossa→greater palatine n.→pterygopalatine ganglion→palatine canal→greater palatine foramen→mucosa & underlying osseous tissue of hard palate, lingual gingiva of posterior teeth |
Nasopalatine Nerve | Trigeminal ganglion→V2→F. rotundum→pterygopalatine fossa→nasopalatine n.→pterygopalatine ganglion→sphenopalatine f.→nasal cavity→nasopalatine canal→incisive f.→anterior hard palate, lingual gingiva of anterior teeth, osseous tissue, overlying mucosa |
External branch of PSA n. | Trigeminal ganglion→V2→Foramen rotundum→pterygopalatine fossa→pterygomaxillary fissure→Infratemporal fossa→external branch of PSA→buccal gingiva and alveolar mucosa of 2nd & 3rd molars, DB root of 1st molar |
Internal branch of PSA n. | Trigeminal ganglion→V2→Foramen rotundum→pterygopalatine fossa→pterygomaxillary fissure→Infratemporal fossa→internal branch of PSA→PSA foramen on infratemporal surface of the maxilla→POP of 2nd & 3rd molars, L & DB roots of 1st molar |
Middle Superior Alveolar n. | Trigeminal ganglion→V2→F. rotundum→pterygopalatine fossa→infraorbital n. →inferior orbital fissure→infraorbital groove→infraorbital canal→MSA n.→POP, facial gingiva & vestibular mucosa of premolar teeth & MB root of 1st molar, portion of maxillary sinus |
