| maxillomandibular | <anatomy> Pertaining to the maxilla and mandible (the upper and lower jaws). For example the maxillomandibular nerve. (21 Jun 2000) |

| maxillomandibular fixation | Fixation of fractures of the mandible or maxilla by applying elastic bands or stainless steel wire between the maxillary and mandibular arch bars or other types of splint. Synonym: mandibulomaxillary fixation, maxillomandibular fixation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| maxillomandibular record | A record of the relation of the mandible to the maxillae, the act of recording the relation of the mandible to the maxillae. Synonym: biscuit bite, maxillomandibular registration. (05 Mar 2000) |
| maxillomandibular registration | A record of the relation of the mandible to the maxillae, the act of recording the relation of the mandible to the maxillae. Synonym: biscuit bite, maxillomandibular registration. (05 Mar 2000) |
| maxillomandibular relation | Any one of the many relation's of the mandible to the maxillae, e.g., centric jaw relation, eccentric relation. Synonym: intermaxillary relation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| maxillomandibular traction | <dentistry> A pulling force developed by using elastic or wire ligatures and interdental wiring or splints, or both. Synonym: intermaxillary traction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anchorage | <cell biology> Attachment, not necessarily adhesive in character, because the mechanism is not assumed the term ought to be more widely used. (18 Nov 1997) |
| anchorage dependence | <cell biology, cell culture> The necessity for attachment (and spreading) in order that a cell will grow and divide in culture. Loss of anchorage dependence seems to be associated with greater independence from external growth control and is probably one of the best correlates of tumourigenicity in vivo. Anchorage independence is usually detected by cloning cells in soft agarose, only anchorage independent cells will grow and divide (as they will in suspension). (18 Nov 1997) |
| reciprocal anchorage | Anchorage in which the movement of one or more teeth is balanced against the movement of one or more opposing teeth. (05 Mar 2000) |
| reinforced anchorage | Anchorage in which more than one type of resistance unit is utilised. Synonym: reinforced anchorage. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cervical anchorage | Anchorage in which the back of the neck is used for resistance by means of a cervical strap. (05 Mar 2000) |
| multiple anchorage | Anchorage in which more than one type of resistance unit is utilised. Synonym: reinforced anchorage. (05 Mar 2000) |
| simple anchorage | Anchorage in which the resistance to the movement of one or more teeth comes solely from resistance to tipping movement of the anchorage unit. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stationary anchorage | Anchorage in which the resistance to the movement of one or more teeth comes from the resistance to bodily movement of the anchorage unit; a questionable concept since the selected teeth remain only relatively stable. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intermaxillary anchorage | Anchorage in which the units in one jaw are used to effect tooth movement in the other jaw. (05 Mar 2000) |
