What is a gomphosis joint?

A

unique fibrous joints that anchor teeth into their sockets

18
Q

Where are fibrous joints located?

A

Peg and socket articulation between the roots of the teeth and the alveolar processes of the maxilla or mandible.

19
Q

What is a gimphosis joint also called?

A

peg and socket joint

20
Q

What is the fibrous connection between the tooth and socket called?

A

periodontal ligament

21
Q

What joint types allow little to no movement?

A

cartilaginous and fibrous

22
Q

What is the epiphyseal plate?

A

The main site of longitudinal growth of the long bones

23
Q

What joint type is shown here?

A

cartilagenous primary

synchondrosis

e.g. epiphyseal plate

24
Q

What is the difference between primary and secondary cartilagenous joints?

A

The primary cartilaginous joint is where two bones are joined by hyaline cartilage and.

The secondary cartilaginous joint is where two bones are joined by fibrocartilage and hyaline cartilage

25
Q

What are primary cartilagenous joints called during developemt?

A

epiphyseal plates

26
Q

What cartilage unites the bone in primary cartilagenous joints?

A

hyaline cartilage

27
Q

What allows no movement between primary cartilagenous joints?

A

hyaline cartilage

28
Q

35
Q

Describe the bone in a symphysis joint

36
Q

What cartilage is between each disc in a symphysis joint?

A

fibro-cartilage

37
Q
