| centric interocclusal record | A record of centric jaw relation, eccentric interocclusal record, a record of jaw position in other than centric relation, lateral interocclusal record, a record of a lateral eccentric jaw position; and (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| protrusive interocclusal record | A record of a protruded eccentric jaw position. Synonym: checkbite. (05 Mar 2000) |
| interocclusal | Between the occlusal surfaces of opposing teeth. (05 Mar 2000) |
| interocclusal clearance | The space between the occluding surfaces of the maxillary and mandibular teeth when the mandible is in physiologic resting position. Synonym: interocclusal clearance, interocclusal distance, interocclusal gap, interocclusal rest space. (05 Mar 2000) |
| interocclusal gap | The space between the occluding surfaces of the maxillary and mandibular teeth when the mandible is in physiologic resting position. Synonym: interocclusal clearance, interocclusal distance, interocclusal gap, interocclusal rest space. (05 Mar 2000) |
| interocclusal record | A record of the positional relationship of the teeth or jaws to each other, recorded by placing a plastic material which hardens (such as plaster of Paris, wax, etc.) between the occlusal surfaces of the rims or teeth; the hardened material serves as the record; it may be registered in centric or eccentric positions, as (05 Mar 2000) |
| interocclusal registration | <dentistry> A wax bite which is used to see how your teeth come together (08 Jan 1998) |
| interocclusal rest space | The vertical distance between the opposing occlusal surfaces, assuming rest relation unless otherwise designated. Synonym: interocclusal rest space. Synonym: freeway space. (05 Mar 2000) |
| map distance | The degree of separation of two loci on a linkage map, measured in morgans or centimorgans. (05 Mar 2000) |
| genetic distance | <molecular biology> A way of measuring the amount of evolutionary divergence in two separated populations of a species by counting the number of allelic substitutions per locus that have cropped up in each population. (09 Oct 1997) |
| reduced interarch distance | An occluding vertical dimension which results in an excessive interocclusal distance when the mandible is in rest position, and in a reduced interridge distance when the teeth are in contact. (05 Mar 2000) |
| working distance free | <microscopy> The distance between the front lens of the objective and the coverslip (or uncovered object) when the lens is focused on the specimen. (05 Aug 1998) |
| pupillary distance | The distance between the centre of each pupil; the major reference points in measuring for fitting of spectacle frames and lenses. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hyperfocal distance | <microscopy> The nearest distance, h, at which a camera lens focuses the far distance (infinity). This gives the maximum depth of field, the nearest distance in focus is h/2. (05 Aug 1998) |
| small interarch distance | A small distance between the maxillary and mandibular arches. Synonym: close bite. (05 Mar 2000) |
