The right infraorbital foramen is the correct answer because it is a specific anatomical feature located on the right side of the face. The infraorbital foramen is a small opening in the maxilla bone, just below the eye socket (orbit). It allows for the passage of the infraorbital nerve, which provides sensation to the skin of the cheek, upper lip, and side of the nose.
