Somatic sensory innervation of the face: Trigeminal nerve (CN V) supratrochlear nerve supraorbital nerve dorsal rami of cervical spinal nerves Ophthalmic division (V1) infraorbital nerve auriculotemporal nerve Maxillary division (V2) buccal nerve Mandibular division (V3) branches from cervical plexus mental nerve
Muscles of facial expression (somatic motor, CN VII) frontalis orbicularis oculi levator labii superioris zygomaticus minor zygomaticus major orbicularis oris depressor anguli oris depressor labii inferioris mentalis platysma
Facial nerve: pathway for somatic motor branches to muscles of facial expression stylomastoid foramen (CN VII exit)
To Zanzibar By Motor Car Temporal branches Zygomatic branch posterior auricular branch Buccal branch parotid gland facial nerve emerging from stylomastoid foramen Mandibular branch Cervical branch The facial nerve runs through, but does not control, the parotid gland. Parasympathetic innervation originates in the glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX) and follows a complex path to reach the gland.
