The phrase "articulation surfaces" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to anatomy, engineering, or mechanics, referring to the surfaces where two bones or components meet and interact.
Example: "The doctor explained that the wear on the articulation surfaces of the joint could lead to pain and reduced mobility."
Alternatives: "joint surfaces" or "contact surfaces".
Only a year later, Jaekel instead favoured a clumsy, kangaroo-like hopping, a change of heart for which he was mocked by German zoologist Gustav Tornier, who interpreted the shape of the articulation surfaces in the hip and shoulder as typically reptilian.
Articulation surfaces for adjacent bone denoted with "s".
The pterygoid wings were broad and dorsoventrally thin, with flat articulation surfaces for the ectopterygoids ventrolaterally (Fig. 2K,L).
The potential long-term problem with convex polyethylene articulation surfaces can be expected to decrease using currently available high-molecular-weight polyethylene.
The unguals are clawed, narrow, and pointed, and decrease in size from the digit I to V. The distal articulation surfaces of the proximal phalanges exhibit posteriorly projecting flanges that underlap the proximal epiphysis of the preceding metacarpals.
The choice of materials used in a prosthesis takes into consideration those used in the articulation surfaces as well as outer surfaces of the prosthesis that interface with the endplates of the vertebral bodies themselves.

It extends posterior to the posterior margin of the articulation surface with the exoccipital-opisthotic complex (Fig. 1a,b), unlike the anteriorly positioned ascending process of Edmontosaurus sp. (DMNH 22807, UAMES 4291, UAMES 12727, UAMES 21544; Fig. 2).
The new hadrosaurid supraoccipital DMNH 2014-12-266 largely difroms from those of the Liscomb Edmontosaurus sp. in the presence of the well-developed squamosal bosses (Fig. 2a e) and the short exoccipital articulation surface (Fig. 2f j; Table 2).
