"The anterior superior alveolar nerve, also known as the anterior superior dental nerve, is a branch of the infra-orbital nerve, from the maxillary division of the trigeminal nerve. It is the largest of the superior alveolar nerves and contributes to the superior dental plexus."
"It arises from the infra-orbital nerve whilst in the infra-orbital canal just before it exits the infra-orbital foramen. It descends in the anterior wall of the maxillary sinus in the anterior superior alveolar canal and terminal dental branches enter the apical foramina at the dental roots."
