Understanding the Anatomy of the Temporomandibular Joint in Dentistry.

🧠 The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is an important topic in dentistry.

🦴 The TMJ is formed by the temporal bone and the mandibular bone.

⚙️ The TMJ allows for movement and is classified as an arthrosis joint.

🔵 The articulating surfaces of the TMJ include the condyle of the mandible, the glenoid cavity of the temporal bone, and the condyle of the temporal bone.

👉 The temporomandibular joint is made up of the mandibular condyle and the temporal bone.

🔍 A cartilaginous structure called the articular disc serves to cushion and adapt the joint surfaces.

🔗 The temporomandibular joint has three types of ligaments: articular capsule ligaments, intrinsic ligaments, and extrinsic ligaments.

👁️ The articulation of the temporomandibular joint in dentistry involves the articular capsule and its insertions.

🖼️ The articular capsule surrounds the temporomandibular joint and has superior and inferior insertions.

🔒 The intrinsic ligaments of the temporomandibular joint include the external and internal lateral ligaments.

🔑 The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a complex joint that allows for jaw movement.

🔑 The TMJ is supported by several ligaments, including the external lateral ligament and the internal lateral ligament.

🔑 There are also three extrinsic ligaments that contribute to the function of the TMJ.

🧠 The video discusses the anatomy of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) in dentistry.

🔍 The TMJ is supported by three important ligaments: the internal lateral ligament, the stylohyoid ligament, and the maxillary ligament.

💪 These ligaments provide insertion points for various muscles that help with jaw movement.
