As your friend is traveling the plains of northern Wyoming in early June, he encounters an old injun who prides himself in collecting teeth from the white men. However, due to his belief in the Moon Man taking vengeance on those who cause pain he injects his homeprep of nerve block to remove the upper premolars bilaterally. In what nerve(s) would he like to inject the nerve block to inhibit pain sensation from the periodontal ligament, teeth or alveolar process?

Maxillary Nerve after the Pterygopalatine ganglion

Infraorbital nerve just above the canine fossa

Greater Palatine Nerve before it leaves the Greater palatine foramen

Just as the nasopalatine leaves the incisor foramen

Maxillary Nerve after the Pterygopalatine ganglion

What nerve fibers synapse in the pterygopalatine ganglion?

GVE Parasympathetic fibers of the Nerve of the Pterygoid canal

GVA Sympathetic fibers of the Nerve to the Pterygoid canal

GVE Sympathetic fibers the Greater Petrosal nerve

GVE Parasympathetic fibers of the Oculomotor Nerve

GVE Parasympathetic fibers of the Nerve of the Pterygoid canal

GVA Parasympathetic fibers of the Nerve of the Pterygoid canal

An infant has bilateral cleft lip. Which processes failed to fuse?

Maxillary prominences with the intermaxillary segments

Lateral nasal prominences with the maxillary prominences

Maxillary prominences with the intermaxillary segments

A five year old boy is found to have a pericardial infection. Upon imaging studies the source of the infection is identified within an esophageal diverticulum. What is the route the infection spread through?

Davis, an AMSA member and second semester medical student, shadows a tonsillectomy. During the procedure, the surgeon asks the group of Ross AMSA members to name the two arches that border the Palatine Tonsils. Davis enthusiastically replies with the correct answer:

Palatoglossal Arch (Anteriorly) & Palatopharyngeal Arch (Posteriorly)

Anterior Tonsillar Arch & Posterior Tonsillar Arch

Palatoglossal Arch (Anteriorly) & Palatopharyngeal Arch (Posteriorly)

Palatopharyngeal Arch (Anteriorly) & Palatoglossal Arch (Posteriorly)

Torus Tubarius (Anteriorly) & Salpingopharyngeal fold (Posteriorly)

Palatoglossal folds (Anteriorly) & Salpingopharyngeal fold (Posteriorly)

A patient has been complaining of tooth pain in his upper jaw for the past 2 weeks. Upon doing a full interview, you learn that your patient was born with a congenital condition known as situs inversus. He also has karatgener's syndrome and is infertile. He says his whole head feels heavy, his face hurts, and he has been somewhat congested as well. As a recent Ross graduate, you know that the upper row of teeth is innervated by the superior alveolar nerve, a branch of the maxillary nerve, but you recall your Anatomy Professors warning you differentiate face and tooth pain from something else. Given the history of the patient, what is he most likely suffering from?

Infection of the Maxillary sinus

Damage to Lesser Palatine nerve

Infection of the Maxillary sinus

Damage to the Greater Palatine Nerve
