The nasopalatine nerve (also long sphenopalatine nerve[1]: 496 ) is a nerve of the head. It is a sensory branch of the maxillary nerve (CN V2) that passes through the pterygopalatine ganglion (without synapsing) and then through the sphenopalatine foramen to enter the nasal cavity, and finally out of the nasal cavity through the incisive canal and then the incisive fossa to enter the hard palate. It provides sensory innervation to the posteroinferior part of the nasal septum, and gingiva just posterior to the upper incisor teeth.[1]: 496
The nasopalatine nerve is the largest of the medial posterior superior nasal nerves.[1]: 370
