| triple X syndrome | <syndrome> In principle, the phenotypic features characteristic of trisomy of the X chromosome. Original observations (made in mental institutions) were seriously biased and the phenotypic changes spurious; now, even the remaining claim, that there is mild mental retardation, is suspect. The outstanding feature of the syndrome is the occurence of twin Barr bodies in a typical cell. (05 Mar 2000) |

| calculus | A calcium salt concretion which forms on your teeth. Calculus deposits form on the teeth in areas which you do not floss or brush. If these concretions are left to build up on the tooth enamel, they will irritate the gum tissue, push it away from the tooth and promote progressive bone loss. Eventually the teeth can loosen and fall out. These deposits can be removed by a dentist or a dental hygienist on an annual to biannual basis. (renal) A solid concretion or stone which forms within the urinary tract (kidney). (27 Sep 1997) |
