contribution on the innervation of the teeth in donkey

ABSTRACT

Work was carried on the heads of ten adult donkeys, to persuade the various nerves supplying the teeth of the upper and lower jaws. It was found that the molar teeth of the upper jaw, except the first one, are innervated by the rami alveolares maxillares caudales, while all the molars of the lower jaw are supplied by the rami alveolares m and ibulares caudales. The premolar teeth are supplied by several branches detached from the rami alveolaris maxillaris [or m and ibularis] media. The canine and incisor teeth are innervated by the rami alveolares maxillares [or m and ibulars] rostrales which issued from the union established between the ramus alveolaris maxillaris [or m and ibularis] media of both sides. The obtained results have been discussed with the available literatures and illustrated by two diagrams
