Abstract
The infraorbital nerve arises from fibers of the maxillary nerve. The infraorbital nerve enters the orbit via the inferior orbital fissure and passes along the floor of the orbit in the infraorbital groove. The nerve exits the orbit via the infraorbital foramen and provides cutaneous branches that innervate the lower eyelid, lateral naris, and upper lip. The superior alveolar branch of the infraorbital nerves provides sensory innervation to the upper incisor, canine, and associated gingiva. Infraorbital nerve block can be used in a diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic manner.
