DENT 5315/DH 2215 Here comes the Quiz! Yes!

Classification of Joints II. Temporomandibular Joint I. Classification of Joints 3 Types of Joints: A. Fibrous B. Cartilaginous C. Synovial I. Classification of Joints II. Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) A. Type of Joint B. Development C. Anatomy & Histology D. Biomechanics E. Innervation F. Blood Supply II. Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) A. Type of Joint “synovial slidingginglymoid joint” Ginglymoid means: Pertaining to, or resembling, a ginglymus, or hinge joint; ginglyform. II. Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) B. Development Association of Meckel’s cartilage with mandible Condylar cartilage appears 12th week II. Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) C. Anatomy & Histology Condylar Head Bovine Condyle Condylar Head A - Fibrous layer B - Reserve zone C - Proliferative zone D - Hypertrophic zone E - Calcifying zone F - Bone Capsule Functions: Seals joint space Passive stability Synovial lining Proprioceptive nerve endings Note synovial membrane over villi (arrow): Articular Disk “Acres of Collagen” Aneural & Avascular Posterior Ligament Synovial Membrane Synovial Fluid: Liquid environment Lubrication Nutrition? Muscles Difference between unipennate, bipennate & multipennate: Muscles with central tendon Muscle fiber bundles attached to one side, two sides or around multiple central tendons Muscles of Mastication D. Biomechanics Complex combinations of muscle activity Disk enables complex movements D. Innervation Movements of synovial joint initiated & effected by muscle coordination. Achieved in part through sensory innervation. Hilton’s Law: The muscles acting on a joint have the same nerve supply as the joint. Therefore: Branches of the mandibular division of the fifth cranial nerve supply the TMJ (auriculotemporal, deep temporal, and masseteric) D. Innervation 4 Types of nerve endings: 1. Ruffini’s corpuscles (limited to capsule) 2. Pacini’s corpuscles (limited to capsule) 3. Golgi tendon organs (confined to ligament) 4. Free nerve endings (most abundant) Pacinian Corpuscle “Onion-like encapusulated pressure receptors Surrounding concentric lamellae respond to distortion, generate action potential in unmyelinated fiber in core Bar = 100 microns http://www.kumc.edu/instruction/medicine/anatomy/hi stoweb/nervous/nervous.htm Ruffini’s & Golgi Corpuscle Function: Ruffini’s = Posture (proprioception), dynamic and static balance Golgi tendon organ = Static mechanoreception, protection (ligament) Free nerve endings = Pain (nociception) protection (joint) www.anatomyatlases.org/ MicroscopicAnatomy/Section06/ Section06.shtml Ruffini’s Corpuscle
