Study Notes
Blood Vessels
- The external jugular vein is located at the side of the neck and carries blood returning to the heart from the head, face, and neck.
- The facial artery supplies blood to the lower region of the face, mouth, and nose.
- The frontal artery supplies blood to the forehead and upper eyelids.
Bones
- The facial skeleton consists of two nasal bones, two lacrimal bones, two zygomatic bones, two maxillae, the mandible, two turbinal bones, two palatine bones, and the vomer.
- The frontal bone forms the forehead.
Muscles
- The frontalis is the anterior or front portion of the epicranius and is a muscle of the scalp.
- The flexor is an extensor muscle of the wrist involved in flexing the wrist.
Nervous System
- The fifth cranial nerve is the chief sensory nerve of the face and controls chewing.
- The greater auricular nerve is located at the sides of the neck and affects the face, ears, and neck.
