Types of Joints
synarthrosis = immoveable

amphiarthrosis = slightly moveable

synovial / diarthrosis = freely moveable
synarthrosis
Immovable type of joint
amphiarthrosis
slightly moveable

Three types
Fibrous Joint
Syndemosis Joints
Cartilaginous Joints
Fibrous Joints
amphiarthrosis Joint

Slightly moveable

2 bones are joined together by fibrous CT

Ex: PDL is a gomphosis joint that connects teeth to alveolar bone
Syndemosis Joints
amphiarthrosis joint

Slightly moveable

2 bones are joined together by ligaments

Ex: tibia, fibia, radius, ulna
Cartilaginous Joints
amphiarthrosis joint

slightly moveable

2 bones joined together by cartilage

Ex: true ribs and pubic symphysis
Synovial Joint
Free moveable

2 bones joined together with articulating cartilage disk in between

CT capsule surrounds
What does TMJ articulate
Temporal bone and Mandibular bone
Articular disk
Divides the joint cavity into an upper and lower compartment

Firmly attached anteriorly

Loosely attached posteriorly

Lack of vascularity = inability to repair itself

Thick bundles of collagen and reticular fibers
Upper compartment of disk performs what movement
Gliding or translational movements
Lower compartment of disk performs what movement
Hinge movement
How is TMJ different from other joints
It is not a weight bearing joint
How does TMJ develop
Develops from condensations of mesenchyme called blastemas

Temporal blastema appears first than Mandibular blastema
How does bone form in the TMJ
endochondral bone formation
Outer component of joint capsule
dense collagenous fibrous sac

firmly attached to the condyle & loosely attached to the temporal bone
Inner component of joint capsule
Contains thin vascular membrane

Type A Synovial cells produces hyuronidate mucous component of synovial fluid

Type B Synovial cells produce protein component of synovial fluid
Synovial Fluid
Functions to lubricate and provide nutrient and waste exchange to the bones

Type A Synovial cells produces hyuronidate mucous component of synovial fluid

Type B Synovial cells produce protein component of synovial fluid
Layers of Condyle
From outer to inner

Collagenous lining
Fibrocartilage
Hyaline Cartilage
Compact bone
Spongy bone
Layers of Temporal Fossa
Outer to Inner
Collagenous lining parallel to bone
Collagenous lining perpendicular to bone
Compact bone
Spongy bone

(no fibrocartilage and hyaline cartilage like in condyles)
