Q: in rare cases when the tenporo mandibular joint fractures where the pieces of anterior and cartilage go?

: Because the various bones are holding tendons and are usually found within sheaths of tissue, the bones would not be expected to move very far. An exception would be if they somehow break through the tissue and skin.
