| contact point | That part of the proximal surface of a tooth which touches the adjacent tooth mesially or distally. Synonym: contact point, point of proximal contact. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| contact rate | <epidemiology> The rate at which susceptibles meet infecteds. Usually measured as individuals per unit time. (05 Dec 1998) |
| contact sensitivity | Allergic response to contact with irritant, usually a hypersensitivity. (18 Nov 1997) |
| contact sites A | Developmentally regulated adhesion sites that appear on the ends of aggregation competent Dictyostelium discoideum at the stage when the starved cells begin to come together to form the grex. Originally detected by the use of Fab fragments of polyclonal antibodies, raised against aggregation competent cells and adsorbed against vegetative cells, to block adhesion in EDTA containing medium. (Cell cell adhesion mediated by contact sites A, unlike that mediated by contact sites B, is not divalent cation sensitive). The fact that a mutant deficient in csA behaves perfectly normally in culture is puzzling. (18 Nov 1997) |

| contact splint | A slotted plate, held by screws, used in the treatment of fracture of long bones. (05 Mar 2000) |
| contact surface of tooth | The surface of a tooth that faces an adjacent tooth in the dental arch; the contact surface that is closest to the anterior midline of the dental arch is the mesial surface of a tooth; that farthest is the distal surface. Synonym: facies approximalis dentis, facies contactus dentis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| contact tracing | Identification of those persons (or animals) who have had such an association with an infected person, animal, or contaminated environment as to have had the opportunity to acquire the infection. Contact tracing is a generally accepted method for the control of sexually transmitted diseases. (12 Dec 1998) |
| contact-type dermatitis | Dermatitis resembling contact dermatitis or eczema, but caused by an ingested or injected allergen, usually a drug, and with a widespread or generalised distribution. (05 Mar 2000) |
| point of proximal contact | That part of the proximal surface of a tooth which touches the adjacent tooth mesially or distally. Synonym: contact point, point of proximal contact. (05 Mar 2000) |
| premature contact | A condition of tooth contact's which diverts the mandible from a normal path of closure to centric jaw relation. Synonym: cuspal interference, interceptive occlusal contact, premature contact. (05 Mar 2000) |
| proximal contact | Proximate contact, the area where the surfaces of two adjacent teeth in the same arch touch. Contact with reality, correctly interpreting external phenomena in relation to the norms of one's social or cultural milieu. Working contacts, working or occlusion; contact's of teeth made on the side of the occlusion toward which the mandible has been moved. Synonym: working bite, working occlusion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| screen-film contact | The closeness and uniformity with which the X-ray film in a cassette lies against the screen. Image resolution is dependent on this closeness and uniformity of contact. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nonreciprocal contact inhibition | <cell biology> Collision behaviour between different cell types in which one cell shows contact inhibition of locomotion and the other does not. An example is the interaction between sarcoma cells and fibroblasts (the former not being inhibited). (18 Nov 1997) |
| deflective occlusal contact | A condition of tooth contact's which diverts the mandible from a normal path of closure to centric jaw relation. Synonym: cuspal interference, interceptive occlusal contact, premature contact. (05 Mar 2000) |
