Introduction
The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a bilateral synovial articulation between the ends of the mandible (lower jaw) and temporal bone ( part of the skull). Both mastication and facial muscles are attached to the lower jaw.
The earliest review of human embryonic and fetal TMJ development is by Symons in 1952.[1]
In the adult, the region where two skeletal bones meet and articulate is called a "joint", that are classified based upon their: anatomical structure, mobility and shape. In the embryo, the majority of the vertebrate skeleton is initially formed as a cartilage template, that is later replaced by bone except at the interface between two adjacent bones, leaving in the adult a layer of cartilage in this region. The musculoskeletal system consists of skeletal muscle, bone, and cartilage and is mainly mesoderm in origin with some neural crest contribution.

Joint Types
Classification
- Fibrous (synarthrodial) - immoveable joints found in cranial vault and teeth
- Cartilagenous (synchondroses and sympheses) - partially moveable joints
- Synovial (diarthrosis) - freely moveable joints are the most common found in the skeleton
Movement
- Hinge - (elbow and knee) Flexion/Extension
- Pivot - (neck, atlas and axis bones) Rotation of one bone around another
- Ball and Socket - (shoulder and hip)
- Saddle - (thumb)
- Condyloid - (wrist joints)
- Gliding - (intercarpal joints) Gliding movements
Molecular
Indian Hedgehog (IHH)
- Human cytogenetic location - 2q35
- 336 amino acid protein.
- Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) and IHH N-terminals share 91.4% identity, C-terminal halves significantly different.
- expressed in the prehypertrophic chondrocytes of cartilage elements.

Short Stature Homeobox 2 (SHOX2)
