| dental orthopedics | The use of devices to move teeth or adjust underlying bone. The ideal age for starting orthodontic treatment is between ages 3 to 12 years. Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) problems can be corrected with splinting or dental braces. Teeth can be moved by removable appliances or by fixed braces. Crowding of teeth can require extraction of teeth. Retainers may be necessary long after dental braces are placed, especially with orthodontic treatment of adults. (12 Dec 1998) |
| orthopedics | Literally, the practice of child straightening, orthopedics is the branch of surgery broadly concerned with the skeletal system (bones). (12 Dec 1998) |
| functional jaw orthopedics | Utilization of muscle forces to effect changes in jaw position and tooth alignment by removable appliances. Synonym: functional orthodontic therapy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| maxillofacial | Pertaining to the jaws and face, particularly with reference to specialised surgery of this region. (05 Mar 2000) |
| maxillofacial abnormalities | Congenital structural deformities, malformations, or other abnormalities of the maxilla and face or facial bones. (12 Dec 1998) |
| maxillofacial development | The process of growth and differentiation of the jaws and face. (12 Dec 1998) |
| maxillofacial injuries | General or unspecified injuries involving the face and jaw (either upper, lower, or both). (12 Dec 1998) |
| maxillofacial prosthesis | A prosthetic appliance for the replacement of areas of the maxilla, mandible, and face, missing as a result of deformity, disease, injury, or surgery. When the prosthesis replaces portions of the mandible only, it is referred to as mandibular prosthesis. (12 Dec 1998) |
| maxillofacial prosthesis implantation | Surgical insertion of an appliance for the replacement of areas of the maxilla, mandible, and face. When only portions of the mandible are replaced, it is referred to as mandibular prosthesis implantation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| maxillofacial prosthetics | That branch of dentistry which provides prostheses or devices to treat or restore tissues of the stomatognathic system and associated facial structures that have been affected by disease, injury, surgery, or congenital defect, to provide all possible function and esthetics.
