Temporomandibular syndrome.
Glide movement of the mandible involves sliding the lower jaw forward or backward in a smooth linear motion. Hinge movement of the mandible involves opening and closing the jaw like a hinge, allowing for the up and down motion of the lower jaw. These movements are essential for functions such as chewing and speaking.
When you move your lower jaw forward, the joint movement involved is primarily a combination of hinge (rotation) and sliding (translation) movements at the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). This allows for the smooth opening and closing of the mouth.
The mandibular condyle is a rounded projection at the end of the mandible that articulates with the skull to form the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). Its function is to allow for smooth and controlled movements of the jaw during activities such as chewing, speaking, and yawning.
The jaw can be unstable due to various reasons, including trauma or injury, tooth loss, misalignment of the teeth, or problems with the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). These issues can disrupt the normal functioning and stability of the jaw, causing discomfort, pain, and difficulty with chewing and speaking. Treatment options may include orthodontics, dental restorations, physical therapy, or surgery, depending on the specific cause of jaw instability.

The jowl is another name for the jaw or the cheek bone. The jaw bone is known as the mandible and is connected to the cranium. Together they are known as the skull.
Mandible is the lower jaw and maxible is the upper jaw.
Jaw wiring, also known as maxillomandibular fixation, is a surgical procedure where metal pins and wires are anchored into the jaw bones and surrounding tissues to keep the jaw from moving.
The mandible, or the jaw bone.
Your teeth feel incredibly smooth, and, at least in the day of metal braces, your jaw feels lighter.
The jaw joint, also known as the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), includes the mandible (lower jaw bone) and the temporal bone (part of the skull).
The mandible, also known as the lower jaw bone, is the only moveable bone in the face. It is unique in that it can move up and down, as well as side to side, enabling actions such as chewing and speaking.
