Abstract:
In this article, 100 maxilla samples of the Kunming area werc takcn for observing the suborbital foramen and infraorbital canal and their relative data. The purpose of this investigation was to provide an anatomical basis for the clinical block anesthesia of the infraorbital nerve and its branches. The results show that 93％ of the suborbital foramen is an oval-shaped mono-foramen and 7％ has a paraforamen, their exact positions on the maxilla being measured. The vertical diameter of the suborbital foramen averages 5.83mm, and the transverse one 3.05ram. The average value of the vertical diameter of the infraorbital canal is 11mm, its anterior part axis toward inferior, anterior and interior. 66% of infraorbital canals can be passed through smoothly by a ~#6 hypodermic needle, 12％ with reistance and 22％ can not be passed through.
