<prompt> Middle superior alveolar nerve is a branch of:Mandibular division of trigeminal nervePalatine division of maxillary nerveAnterior nasal division of maxillary nerveInferior alveolar nerve  <response>: This question doesnt have a proper answer and the most suitable option has been chosen. Middle superior alveolar nerve supplies the palatal teeth on the maxilla and hence can be stated as the palatal branch of maxillary nerve. It supplies teeth number 4, 5 premolars and 6 first molar. It also supplies the lining of maxillary air sinus. It is given by the infraorbital nerve, while running in the infraorbital groove. Superior alveolar nerves branch of maxillary nerve supply the upper maxillary teeth, whereas lower mandibular teeth are supplied by the inferior alveolar nerve branch of mandibular nerve. Superior alveolar nerves are three in number and make superior dental plexus to supply the upper teeth: Posterior, middle and anterior. Posterior superior alveolar nerve is a branch of maxillary nerve, whereas middle and anterior are given by the infraorbital nerve branch of maxillary nerve. Middle superior alveolar block is given while operating upon upper premolars.
