joint anatomy (chiro essentials pg40-44) Flashcards
What type of joint is the TMJ
Atypical synovial
What makes the TMJ an atypical synovial joint
The articulating surface has fibrocartilage instead of hyaline cartilage
It also has a intra-articular disc
In What compartment of the TMJ does Protraction/retraction occur
Upper compartment
In what compartment of the TMJ does elevation/depression occur
Lower compartment
What bones are involved in the TMJ
Mandible
Mandibular fossa
Articualr eminence of the temporal bone
What nerves innervate the TMJ
Auriculotemporal
Deep temporal
Masseteric branch of Mandibular division trigeminal
What type of joint is the Shoulder joint
Ball and socket (spheroidal) Synovial joint
What bones are involved in the shoulder joint
Glenoid fossa
Head of humerous
What innervates the shoulder joint
Axillary
Suprascapular nerve
What type of joint is the sternoclavicualr joint
Saddle (sellar), synovial with a intra-articualr disc
Even though the sternoclavicular joint is a saddle joint, how does it behave
Like a ball and socket
What covers the articular surfaces of the sternoclavicular joint
Fibrocartilage
What bones are involved in the sternoclavicular joint
Manubrium
Clavicle
What nerves innervate the sternoclavicular joint
Medial branch of the supraclavicular nerves
What type of joint is the elbow joint
Synovial Hinge (ginglymus)
What bones are involved in the elbow joint
Humerous
Head of radius
Trochlea of ulna
What nerves innervate the elbow joint
Radial
musculocutaneous nerves
What type of joint is the Proximal and Distal radio-ulnar joint
Synovial Pivot (trochoid)
What bones are involved in the Proximal and Distal radio-ulnar joint
Head of radius and notch of ulna (proximal)
Head of Ulna and distal radius (distal)
What nerves innervate the Proximal and Distal radio-ulnar joints
Median
Ulnar
Radial nerves
What type of joint is the wrist joint
Synovial condyloid (ellipsoid)
What bones are involved in the wrist joint
Radius
Scaphoid
Lunate
What nerves innervate the wrist joint
Radial
Median
Ulnar
