 Trigeminal nerve - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The trigeminal nerve is the fifth (V) cranial nerve, and carries sensory information from most of the face, as well as motor supply to the muscles of mastication (the muscles enabling chewing), tensor tympani (in the middle ear) and other muscles in the floor of the mouth, such as the mylohyoid and anterior digastric.
The sensory trigeminal nerve nucleus is the largest of the cranial nerve nuclei, and extends through the whole of the brainstem, midbrain to medulla.

Similar results have been claimed for the mandibular anterior and premolar teeth with buccal infiltrations.19 As discussed with prilocaine, reports of a significantly increased risk of nerve paresthesia with the use of articaine and prilocaine, particularly for inferior alveolar and lingual nerve block injections,12,13 warrants practitioner caution in the use of these anesthetic agents.
Problems with mandibular anesthesia are most common in the molar region but are by no means limited to these teeth.23-29,34 As in the maxilla, most anesthesia problems encountered in the mandible are due to individual variations in the nerve pathways, in other words, accessory innervation (Table 2).34,35
Another concern is the situation where anesthesia of all apparent nerve pathways is achieved, but the duration is short and/or the depth of anesthesia is poor.

If the lesion is due to inflammation of the nerve within the facial canal (most common cause), involvement of these nerves leads to hyperacusis and loss of taste over the anterior 2/3 of the tongue.
The consequent involvement of the greater superficial petrosal nerve (emerging from the facial nerve at the external genu just before it enters the facial canal) would cause a loss of lacrimation and nasal gland secretion in addition to the above symptoms.
