19
Q

The articular surfaces of the TMJ are covered with what?

A

A

-Thin

23
Q

The articular eminence is covered by a thin or thick fibrous layer?

A

24
Q

Where do you find a cartilage layer in the TMJ?

A

-Type II

26
Q

What process forms the bone on the tip of the condyle?

A

-Endochondral

27
Q

T/F There is remodeling that can occur in the TMJ because of the chondroblasts/cartilage found in the condyle and articular eminence

A

True

28
Q

What type of sac is the joint capsule of the TMJ?

A

-Dense collagenous sac

29
Q

The capsule has thickened regions that branch out to form what?

A

-Temperomandibular ligament

30
Q

What does the temporomandibular ligament do?

A

-Restricts lateral and medial movement when the joint articulates

31
Q

What are the three movements that the temporomandibular ligament restricts?

A

  • Superior-inferior
  • Posteriorly
32
Q

What are two other ligaments that limit the inferior movement of the joint when the jaw is open?

A
  • Sphenomandibular ligament

- Stylomandibular ligament

A

True

34
Q

A

False

- Intima

36
Q

Which layer of the synovial membrane is a layer of loose connective tissue that contains elastin fibers and supporting vasculature?

A

-Subintima

37
Q

What layer of the synovial membrane contains macrophages, adipocytes, fibroblasts, mast cells and is continuous with the fibrous tissue of the capsule?

A

-Subintima

38
Q

What layer of the synovial membrane is the innermost layer?

A

-Intima

39
Q

What layer of the synovial membrane contains several layers of synovial cells that are either A cells (resemble macrophages) or B cells (resemble fibroblasts)?

A

-Intima

40
Q

What is the difference between synovial fluid and blood plasma?

A

-Synovial fluid contains extra proteins and proteoglycans
