Yes.... the main one would be the joints between your jaw (mandible) and your skull - the temporomandibular joint (or TMJ) for short.
You couldn't talk without breathing so joints involved in this will include all the joints between the thoracic spine and the ribs, the ribs and the sternum and the sternum and the clavicles.

Types of joints in human body?
There are six main types of joints in the human body: Hinge joints - allow movement in one direction (e.g., elbows, knees) Ball and socket joints - allow movement in multiple directions (e.g., hips, shoulders) Pivot joints - allow rotation around a central point (e.g., neck) Gliding joints - allow sliding movements (e.g., wrists, ankles) Saddle joints - allow movement in two perpendicular directions (e.g., thumbs) Condyloid joints - allow movement in multiple directions except rotation (e.g., wrists)
What joint has the least range of motion?
The joints which allow the least amount of movement are Fibrous Joints - also known as immovable joints. These joints are held firmly together by strong connective tissue and allow no or very little movement. Examples are the joints between the bones in the skull and the teeth.
The wrist and ankle are examplees of ball and socket joints?
Actually, the wrist and ankle joints are examples of hinge joints, not ball and socket joints. Hinge joints allow movement in one plane, like bending and straightening, whereas ball and socket joints allow for a wider range of motion, such as the hip and shoulder joints.
What sockets do fingers have?
Fingers have joints, which are composed of bones, ligaments, and tendons that allow for movement. Joints in the fingers include the metacarpophalangeal joints, proximal interphalangeal joints, and distal interphalangeal joints.
What is the medical term meaning joints that allow little or no movement?
The medical term for joints that allow little or no movement is "synarthrosis." Synarthrosis joints are typically fibrous and provide structural support and stability to the body. Examples include sutures in the skull and gomphoses in teeth.
What does joints do?
Allow movement. Your elbows and knees are joints.
What kind of movement does synarthrotic joints allow?
Synarthrotic joints allow for minimal to no movement. They are immovable or allow very limited movement and provide stability and support to the body. Examples include the joints between the skull bones (sutures).
What joints allow limited movement?
Cartilaginous joints such as those in your spine allow very limited movement.
Which are the joints where the bones meet but they do not allow movement?
immovable joints
What are mobile joints?
Mobile joints are joints in the body that allow for movement and flexibility. These joints consist of bones that are connected by ligaments, cartilage, and synovial fluid, which enable smooth motion between the bones. Examples of mobile joints include the shoulder, knee, and hip joints.
Do all joints allow movement?
No, not all joints allow movement. There are three types of joints: synarthrosis (immovable), amphiarthrosis (slightly movable), and diarthrosis (freely movable). Synarthrosis joints, such as those in the skull, are immovable.
how are joints related to the bones?
Joints are the connections between bones that allow you to move.

What is the movement of the suture?
syntharthrose-immovable jointThe joints allow tiny movements to allow for intracranial pressure, otherwise the joints do not move.
What is the movement of the skull?
syntharthrose-immovable jointThe joints allow tiny movements to allow for intracranial pressure, otherwise the joints do not move.
