The temporomandibular joints are anterior to the ear. They are
ginglymoarthrodial joints that permit both rotational and sliding
movements. The temporomandibular joints, which are on each side of the
lower jaw, join the mandible to the viscerocranium and allow the mouth
to open and close.
This video - produced by students at Oxford University Medical School in
conjunction with the faculty - demonstrates the principles and
techniques underlying basic wound care. It is part of a series of videos
covering clinical skills.
