JOINTS
A site where two or more bones come

together, whether or not movementoccurs between them, is called a joint.

Called "synostoses"
TYPES OF SUTURES
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
PLANE SUTURE
?Simple apposition of contiguous surfaces,
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
? usualy rough andreciprocal y irregular,
Examples
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
? sutures between the
palatine bones,
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
? between the maxil ae andat the palatomaxil ary sutures.
Denticulate Suture
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
Has smal tooth like projections,
often widening towards their
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
ends to provide effectiveinterlocking.
When united by sutural
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
ligament and periosteum, such
sutures are almost completely
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
immobileThe lambdoid suture is a
denticulate suture.
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
SERRATED SUTURE
The sagittal suture is serrated.
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
Squamous suture
Where bones overlap,
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
as at the temporo-parietal suture, a
squamous suture is
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
formed; the adjacent
bone surfaces are
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
reciprocal y bevelled.Syndesmoses
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
?In Greek: "ligament"?Bones connected by
ligaments only
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
?Amount of movement
depends on length of
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
the fibers: longer thanin sutures
Gomphoses
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
?Is a "peg-in-socket"
?Only example is tooth
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
with its socket?Ligament is a short
periodontal ligament
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
Schindylesis
?Special kind of suture.
