Ormocers have several advantages, including low shrinkage, excellent biocompatibility, and superior resistance to masticatory forces. These properties make them suitable for restorations that resemble natural teeth.

The nerve that supplies both the upper and lower jaws is the trigeminal nerve (cranial nerve V). Specifically, the maxillary division (V2) supplies the upper jaw and the mandibular division (V3) supplies the lower jaw. The sphenopalatine, submandibular, and otic ganglia are all topographically associated with branches of the trigeminal nerve, as their parasympathetic secretomotor fibers "hitchhike" along these sensory nerves to reach their target glands. The ciliary ganglion, however, is associated with the oculomotor nerve (cranial nerve III) and supplies structures within the orbit (pupillary constrictor and ciliary muscles), not the jaw regions. Therefore, it is not topographically associated with the nerve that supplies both the upper and lower jaws

ProsthodonticsWhile primarily a muscle of mastication, its activation creates significant force against the buccinator, impacting the denture's stability and requiring specific relief (masseter groove) in the denture's posterior border.
