The temporal mandibular joint is a synovial joint, meaning there is a sac containing synovial fluid between the mandible (lower jaw) and temporal bone of the skull.
In babies the skull joint is the fontanel (fontanelle) which helps in birth due to its flexibility but in the adult the skull joint is a fixed joint or a synarthrotic joint (immovable) called a suture.
You actually have two joints in your "head". Most of the joints are immoveable but the joint that the lower jaw makes with the rest of the skull is a movable joint.
Between the mandibule and skull is the TMJ temporomandibular joint
