The simplest synovial articulation and the least mobile joint type is the plane joint. It allows for limited gliding movement between flat bone surfaces and is found in joints like the intercarpal joints of the wrist. Compared to other types of joints, plane joints provide minimal motion and are important for understanding joint-related health issues.

The simplest synovial articulation is the plane joint , which allows limited movement, primarily sliding. This type contrasts with more mobile joints like biaxial and triaxial joints. Recognizing the unique features of plane joints is important in health and anatomy studies. ;
