The course, branching and distribution territories of the facial artery of the dog were studied by the acryl plastic injection method. In general, the facial artery was found to arise from the external carotid between the points of origin of the lingual and posterior auricular arteries. It ran anteriorly above the digastric muscle and gave rise to the styloglossal, the submandibular glandular and the ptery- goid branches. The artery continued anterolaterally giving off the digastric, the inferior masseteric and the cutaneous branches. It came to the face after sending off the submental artery, which passed anteromedially, giving off the digastric and mylohyoid branches, on the medial surface of the mandible, and gave rise to the sublingual artery. The gingival, the genioglossal and sublingual plical branches arose from the vessel, while the submental artery gave off the geniohyoid branches. Posterior to the mandibular symphysis, various communications termed the sublingual arterial loop, were formed between the submental and the sublingual of both sides. They could be grouped into ten types. In the face, the facial artery gave rise to the mandibular marginal, the anterior masseteric, the inferior labial and the buccal branches, as well as the branch to the superior, and turned to the superior labial artery.

Materials and Methods: The hemifacial lower third was dissected in 12 human cadavers. The blood vessels in the floor of the mouth were exposed using sagittal incisions at the canine, mental foramen, and second molar areas. Results: The diameter of the dissected vessels ranged from 0.5 to 3 mm (mean, 1.5 mm). Most vessels were found superior to the mylohyoid muscle in the canine area and beneath the muscle in the mental and second molar areas. The smallest median vertical distance from blood vessel to bone was in the canine area (14.5 mm), followed by the mental foramen area (15.5 mm) and the second premolar area (19 mm). The median horizontal distance of the vessels from the lingual plate was 2 mm at the canine and second molar areas and 4 mm at the mental area. Discussion: Lingual plate perforation, especially anterior to the canine area, can easily injure blood vessels in the floor of the mouth and cause life-threatening hemorrhage following implant placement. Bleeding can occur when the mandibular lingual plate is perforated. Care should be taken to recognize situations where this complication may occur. Conclusions: Based on the study of human cadavers, it appears that vessels in the floor of the mouth are sometimes in close proximity to the site of implant placement.

Hanai) (With one table, two textfigures and 16 figures in 4 plates) -Received for Publication, November 1, 1978- Key Words : Floor of mouth, Artery, Corrosion cast, Comparative anatomy Summary. The arterial distributions in the region of the floor of the mouth in the rat were studied by means of the acryl plastic injection method. 1. The region and its related tissues were supplied mainly by branches of the sub- lingual artery of the facial, and partly by branches of the tonsillar of the facial and branches of the ascending palatine of the lingual. 2. Branches of the sublingual artery were the submandibular lymph node branch, the muscular branches, the submental branch, the mandibular transversal branches, the mucous branch, the genioglossal branches, the preincisive branch, the retroincisive branch and the alveolar branch. 3. Branches of the tonsillar artery were the mucous branch and the mylohyoid branches. 4. A forward branch and small twigs of the ascending palatine were distributed to the posterior small part of the region. 5. Between the above-mentioned branches and the lingual artery, any marked anastomoses were not observed.
