Detailed explanation-1: -The facial nerve, also known as the seventh cranial nerve, cranial nerve VII, or simply CN VII, is a cranial nerve that emerges from the pons of the brainstem, controls the muscles of facial expression, and functions in the conveyance of taste sensations from the anterior two-thirds of the tongue.
Detailed explanation-2: -The facial nerve has five main branches, although the anatomy can vary somewhat between individuals. The branches are, from top to bottom: frontal (or temporal), zygomatic, buccal, marginal mandibular, and cervical.
Detailed explanation-3: -The mandibular nerve (V3) is the largest branch of the trigeminal nerve. V3 is the only branch of the trigeminal nerve that has both sensory and motor components. V3 receives sensory information from the lower third of the face, the floor of the mouth and jaw, and the tongue.
