the temporomandibular joint has a synovial disc that divides it in two. what do the lower and upper parts do respectively?
lower -- allows hinge-like depression and elevation of the mandible
upper -- allows head of mandible to translocate forward (protrusion) onto the articular tubercle and backward (retraction) into the mandibular fossa
