Which of the following ligaments is NOT associated with the temporomandibular joint?

Explanation

The temporomandibular joint includes the lateral temporomandibular ligament, sphenomandibular ligament, and stylomandibular ligament. The alar ligament is not part of this joint, as it connects the odontoid process of the axis to the occipital bone and is related to the craniovertebral junction.
