Usually, you can infiltrate above the area on the facialthe anterior superior alvoelar, I think and then block the nasopalatine nerve on the palate. ❋ Dr. Dean Brandon (2007)
I have even seen parents who think the nasopalatine papilla the soft pink bump between the two front teeth is an extra tooth. ❋ Dr. Dean Brandon (2007)
In some mammals, it is connected to the oral cavity by the nasopalatine duct. ❋ Zoe Brain (2007)
The sensory nerves are derived from the palatine and nasopalatine nerves and from the glossopharyngeal. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The Sphenopalatine Artery (a. sphenopalatina; nasopalatine artery) passes through the sphenopalatine foramen into the cavity of the nose, at the back part of the superior meatus. ❋ Unknown (1918)
One branch, longer and larger than the others, is named the nasopalatine nerve. ❋ Unknown (1918)
It supplies the gums, the mucous membrane and glands of the hard palate, and communicates in front with the terminal filaments of the nasopalatine nerve. ❋ Unknown (1918)
In this foramen are two lateral apertures, the openings of the incisive canals (foramina of Stenson) which transmit the anterior branches of the descending palatine vessels, and the nasopalatine nerves. ❋ Unknown (1918)
Occasionally two additional canals are present in the incisive foramen; they are termed the foramina of Scarpa and are situated in the middle line; when present they transmit the nasopalatine nerves. ❋ Unknown (1918)
In the articulated skull this foramen leads from the pterygopalatine fossa into the posterior part of the superior meatus of the nose, and transmits the sphenopalatine vessels and the superior nasal and nasopalatine nerves. ❋ Unknown (1918)
Its surface is marked by numerous furrows for vessels and nerves and by the grooves for the nasopalatine nerve, and is traversed by sutures connecting the bones of which it is formed. ❋ Unknown (1918)
Occasionally two additional canals are present in the middle line; they are termed the foramina of Scarpa, and when present transmit the nasopalatine nerves, the left passing through the anterior, and the right through the posterior canal. ❋ Unknown (1918)
In this opening the orifices of two lateral canals are visible; they are named the incisive canals or foramina of Stenson; through each of them passes the terminal branch of the descending palatine artery and the nasopalatine nerve. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The nasopalatine nerve supplies the middle of the septum. ❋ Unknown (1918)
In its anteromedial part, directly over the incisive foramen, a small depression, the nasopalatine recess, is sometimes seen; it points downward and forward and occupies the position of a canal which connected the nasal with the buccal cavity in early fetal life. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The nerves of ordinary sensation are: the nasociliary branch of the ophthalmic, filaments from the anterior alveolar branch of the maxillary, the nerve of the pterygoid canal, the nasopalatine, the anterior palatine, and nasal branches of the sphenopalatine ganglion. ❋ Unknown (1918)
Immediately over the incisive canal at the lower edge of the cartilage of the septum a depression, the nasopalatine recess, is seen. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The surfaces (Fig. 174) are marked by small furrows for blood-vessels, and on each is the nasopalatine groove, which runs obliquely downward and forward, and lodges the nasopalatine nerve and vessels. ❋ Unknown (1918)
