Temporal branches of the facial nerve

The Temporal branches of the facial nerve cross the zygomatic arch to the temporal region, supplying the Auriculares anterior and superior, and joining with the zygomaticotemporal branch of the maxillary, and with the auriculotemporal branch of the mandibular.

The more anterior branches supply the Frontalis, the Orbicularis oculi, and Corrugator supercilii, and join the supraorbital and lacrimal branches of the ophthalmic.
