| talocalcaneal joint | Formed by the articulation of the talus with the calcaneus. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| talocalcaneonavicular joint | A ball-and-socket synovial joint, part of which participates in the transverse tarsal joint, formed by the head of the talus articulating with the navicular bone and the anterior part of the calcaneus. Synonym: articulatio talocalcaneonavicularis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| talocrural joint | The joint that is formed by the inferior articular and malleolar articular surfaces of the tibia, the malleolar articular surface of the fibula, and the medial malleolar, lateral malleolar, and superior surfaces of the talus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| talonavicular joint | The part of the talocalcaneonavicular joint which forms the medial element of the compound transverse tarsal joint. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tempero-mandibular joint | The TMJ hinges the lower jaw (mandible) to the skull. (12 Dec 1998) |
| tempero-mandibular joint syndrome | <syndrome> Disorder of the temporo-mandibular joint(s) causing pain usually in front of the ear(s). Pain in the tmj can be due to trauma (such as a blow to the face), inflammatory or degenerative arthritis, or by the mandible being pushed back towards the ears whenever the patient chews or swallows. Sometimes, muscles around the tmj used for chewing can go into spasm, causing head and neck pain and difficulty opening the mouth normally. (12 Dec 1998) |
| temporomandibular joint | <anatomy, dentistry> The joint that connects the lower jaw to the skull. (12 Jan 1998) |
| temporomandibular joint disease | <disease> A term to used to describe an arthritic condition of the temporomandibular joint in the jaw. Common symptoms include facial pain, joint popping or locking, pain with chewing and inability to completely open or close the mouth. (27 Sep 1997) |
| temporomandibular joint disk | A plate of fibrous tissue that divides the temporomandibular joint into an upper and lower cavity. The disk is attached to the articular capsule and moves forward with the condyle in free opening and protrusion. (boucher's clinical dental terminology, 4th ed, p92) (12 Dec 1998) |
| temporomandibular joint disorders | A variety of conditions affecting the anatomic and functional characteristics of the temporomandibular joint. Factors contributing to the complexity of temporomandibular diseases are its relation to dentition and mastication and the symptomatic effects in other areas which account for referred pain to the joint and the difficulties in applying traditional diagnostic procedures to temporomandibular joint pathology where tissue is rarely obtained and X-rays are often inadequate or non-specific. Common diseases are developmental abnormalities, trauma, subluxation, luxation, arthritis, and neoplasia. (12 Dec 1998) |
| temporomandibular joint dysfunction | Chronic or impaired function of the temporomandibular articulation. See: temporomandibular arthrosis, myofacial pain-dysfunction syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| temporomandibular joint dysfunction syndrome | <syndrome> A symptom complex consisting of pain, muscle tenderness, clicking in the joint, and limitation or alteration of mandibular movement. The symptoms are subjective and manifested primarily in the masticatory muscles rather than the temporomandibular joint itself. Aetiologic factors are uncertain but include occlusal dysharmony and psychophysiologic factors. (12 Dec 1998) |
| temporomandibular joint pain-dysfunction syndrome | <syndrome> Dysfunction of the masticatory apparatus related to spasm of the muscles of mastication precipitated by occlusal dysharmony or alteration in vertical dimension of the jaws, and exacerbated by emotional stress; characterised by pain in the preauricular region, muscle tenderness, popping noise in the temporomandibular joint, and limitation of jaw motion. Synonym: temporomandibular joint pain-dysfunction syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| thigh joint | The ball-and-socket synovial joint between the head of the femur and the acetabulum. Synonym: articulatio coxae, coxa, thigh joint. (05 Mar 2000) |
| elbow joint | A compound hinge synovial joint between the humerus and the bones of the forearm; it consists of the articulatio humeroradialis and the articulatio humeroulnaris. Synonym: articulatio cubiti, cubital joint. (05 Mar 2000) |
| joint play |
1. The motions of sliding, rolling, spinning, or compressing that occur between bony surfaces within a joint when the bones move through ranges of motion. 2. The distensibility or “give” of the joint capsule and ligaments that allow
