SYNOVIAL JOINT:Specialized endothelial cells form a synovial lining and forms the synovial fluid which fills both joint cavities and performs two functions:
Medium for metabolic exchange: as the articular surfaces are avascularLubricant during function:
Two mechanisms by which lubrication occurs:
BOUNDARY LUBRICATION: primary mechanism;synovial fluid forced from one region to
another by movement of the joint itself.
WEEPING LUBRICATION:The articular surfaces itself absorb some amount of synovial fluid
which due to the pressure during function is forced in and out of the articular tissues and provided the medium for metabolic exchange. This occurs only during compression but not all other movements.

The glenoid fossa:
Shallow oval depression in the infratemporal area
Bone of the deepest part is quite thin and shows that this part of the joint is not designed to play an active functional role in the joint.
The articular eminence:
The two slopes of the articular eminence are considered to be a functional part of the joint.
The posterior slope resorbs with edentulism
Muscles of mastication: mastication is a a harmonious and skillful activity which requires the presence and co ordination of not only the muscles of mastication but also the supra infrahyoid muscles, and the facial muscles

The medial pterygoid muscle.The medial pterygoid muscle.Originates from the pterygoid fossa and extends downwards backwards and outwards to insert in the medial side of the ramus of the mandible forming a sling along with the masseter at the angle of the mandible.
It assists in closing of the jaw and contraction of the muscle also causes protrusion.

Plays an active role not during opening but during closing (power stroke)
Originates at the outer surface of the lateral pterygoid plate and extends backward upward and outward to insert into the neck of the condyle.When there is bilateral contraction the condyles are pulled down the articular eminences and the mandible is protruded.
Unilateral contraction causes a mediotrusive movement of that condyle and lateral movement of the mandible to the other side

According to Rees divided into 4 parts: Anterior band –thickened Intermediate band- narrow and thin Posterior band – again thick Bilaminar zone-

TMJ
Articular disc has the shape of a laterally wide ovoid.In frontal section the disc is wedge shaped thicker medially and thinner laterally
Articular disc
Joint capsule
The intermediate band: It is the functional zone of the disc Blood vessels are rarely found here in the intermediate part of the disc
Unlike other synovial joints the TMJ condyle and temporal bone do not fit together in the absence of the disc.
The disc fills the wedge like gap and stabilizes the join during rotation and translation.
Normally there is no space between the disc and the articulating bones except the antero- superior and inferior recesses and the postero -superior and inferior recesses.
These recesses are filled with synovial fluid and movement of the joint squeezes them into the other recesses so a thin film of lubricant is obtained on the moving parts.
The disc also acts as a shock absorber.
They are made up of collagenous connective tissue which do not stretch and do not actively participate in the normal function They act as guide wires restricting certain movements while permitting certain others.They restrict movement mechanically as well as through neuro muscular reflex activity.Ligaments do not stretch. They can be elongated by traction forces but once they have been elongated joint activity is usually compromised.

Functional ligaments
Accessory ligaments
The collateral ligaments (discal).
Attach the medial and lateral poles of the articular disc to the poles of the condyle. They are two in number:- medial and lateral .They function in allowing the disc to move passively with the condyle as it glides anteriorly and posteriorly.
They also allow the disc to be rotated anteriorly and posteriorly on the articular surface of the condyle..
Thus these ligaments are responsible for the hinging movements of the condyle which occurs in the lower compartment.
Capsular ligament.The capsular ligament encompasses the joint retaining the synovial fluid. It is fibroelastic, very well vascularised and well innervated and provides proprioceptive feedback regarding the position and movement of the joint..

IHP
TM ligament.It has two parts outer oblique and an inner horizontal.
The outer part extends from the articular tubercle to the neck of the condyle
The outer oblique part has the following functions: It restricts excessive dropping of the condyle and therefore
limits the normal opening of the mandible.Secondly during opening of the mouth, the condyle rotates
till this ligament becomes tight as its point of insertion is rotated posteriorly. When it becomes taut the neck cannot rotate any further.
This unique feature is found only in humans preventing excessive rotation for the mandible from impinging on the vital mandibular and retromandibular structures behind the jaw.
the inner horizontal part extends backwards from the articular tubercle to insert into to the lateral pole of the condyle and posterior part of the articular disc.
Function:
The inner horizontal portion protects the posterior retrodiscal tissues from trauma and also prevents the lateral pterygoid muscle from over lengthening.
Accessory ligaments:
Sphenomandibular ligament
Stylomandibular ligament.
It becomes taut when the mandible is protruded and thus limits the excessive protrusive movements of the mandible.
