The joints in all 10 of your toes are hinge joints. They allow your toes to move only forward (flexion) and backward (extension). The hinge joint is also called a ginglymus joint. Each of your four small toes (which are called phalanges) have three bones. The big toe (called the hallux) has two bones. The hinge joints are present at the areas where these bones meet. The joints in the toes connect the bones with fibrous tissues, called ligaments and tendons.

∙ 10y agoThe toes are made of two kinds of joints. At the base where they attach to the other bones of the foot is an ellipsoidal joint called a metacarpophalangeal joint. And then the toes have one, for the big toe, and two in the rest, hinge joints.
