Abstract
The accessory innervation of the mandibular dentition was examined by use of the retrograde transportation of horseradish peroxidase or whea t-germ agglutinin-horseradish peroxidase. Nerves within the cervical p lexus which contained transported horseradish peroxidase included the great auricular and transverse cervical. Examination of the upper cerv ical dorsal-root ganglia revealed occasional labelled cells within cer vical levels C1, C2, and C3 in approx. 55.6% of the cases.
