The buccal fascial space is between what?

  1. Buccinator and mandible

  2. Mandible and skin

  3. Buccinator and skin

  4. Buccinator and platysma

The correct answer is: Buccinator and skin

The buccal fascial space is a potential space located between the buccinator muscle and the skin of the cheek. The other options, A, B, and D, are all incorrect because they do not include the buccinator muscle, which is a key component of the buccal fascial space. Option A includes the mandible, which is a bone, not a muscle, and option B includes only the mandible and skin without the buccinator muscle. Option D includes the platysma muscle, which is located in a different part of the face and is not related to the buccal fascial space.
