Which one of the following nerve is NOT a part of Dentist's nerve?
Options:
Answer:
C
Solution:
The Dentist's nerve is another name for the Trigeminal nerve (Cranial Nerve V), as it provides sensory innervation to the face, teeth, and gums.
The Trigeminal nerve has three major branches:
1. Ophthalmic nerve (V1)
2. Maxillary nerve (V2)
3. Mandibular nerve (V3)
The Abducens nerve (Cranial Nerve VI) is a separate motor nerve that controls the lateral rectus muscle of the eye. Therefore, it is not a part of the Dentist's nerve.
Answer: Abducens
