| vertical osteotomy | An oral surgical procedure similar to sliding oblique osteotomy. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|
| C sliding osteotomy | An extraoral osteotomy in the shape of a "C" performed bilaterally in the mandibular rami for the correction of retrognathia and/or apertognathia. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| sagittal split mandibular osteotomy | An intraoral surgical procedure for correction of retrognathism, apertognathia, and prognathism; the mandibular rami and posterior body are sectioned in the sagittal plane. (05 Mar 2000) |
| segmental alveolar osteotomy | An intraoral surgical procedure in which segments of alveolar bone containing teeth are sectioned between, and apically to, the teeth for the repositioning of the alveolus and teeth; it may be maxillary or mandibular, and may be combined with ostectomy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| horizontal osteotomy | An osteotomy performed intraorally for genioplasty; the inferior aspect of the anterior mandible is advanced or retruded by movement of the free segment. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sliding oblique osteotomy | An oral surgical procedure in which the mandibular ramus is cut vertically from the sigmoid notch to the angle to facilitate posterior repositioning of the mandible in correction of mandibular prognathism; it may be performed extraorally or intraorally, and is similar to vertical osteotomy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| osteotomy | <procedure, surgery> The surgical cutting of a bone. Origin: Gr. Temnein = to cut (18 Nov 1997) |
| osteotomy, le fort | Transverse sectioning and repositioning of the maxilla. There are three types: le fort I osteotomy for maxillary advancement or the treatment of maxillary fractures; le fort II osteotomy for the treatment of maxillary fractures; le fort III osteotomy for the treatment of maxillary fractures with fracture of one or more facial bones. Le fort III is often used also to correct craniofacial dysostosis and related facial abnormalities. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Le Fort osteotomy | An osteotomy often done to correct a maxillary skeletal deformity. Classified as Le Fort osteotomy I, II, or III, depending upon the location. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vertical | 1. Of or pertaining to the vertex; situated at the vertex, or highest point; directly overhead, or in the zenith; perpendicularly above one. "Charity . . . Is the vertical top of all religion." (Jer. Taylor) 2. Perpendicular to the plane of the horizon; upright; plumb; as, a vertical line. <astronomy> Vertical angle, an angle measured on a vertical circle, called an angle of elevation, or altitude, when reckoned from the horizon upward, and of depression when downward below the horizon. <botany> Vertical anthers The plane passing through the point of sight, and perpendicular to the ground plane, and also to the picture. Vertical sash, a sash sliding up and down. Cf. French sash, under 3d Sash. Vertical steam engine, a steam engine having the crank shaft vertically above or below a vertical cylinder. Origin: Cf. F. Vertical. See Vertex. 1. Vertical position; zenith. 2. <mathematics> A vertical line, plane, or circle. Prime vertical, Prime vertical dial. See Prime. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| vertical axis | In dentistry, the line around which the working side condyle rotates in the horizontal plane during mandibular movement. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vertical classification | <zoology> Classification which stresses common descent and tends to unite ancestral and descendant groups of a phyletic line in a single higher taxon, separating them from contemporaneous taxa having reached a similar grade of evolutionary change. Compare: Horizontal classification. (09 Jan 1998) |
| vertical dimension | The length of the face determined by the distance of separation of jaws. Occlusal vertical dimension (ovd or vdo) or contact vertical dimension is the lower face height with the teeth in centric occlusion. Rest vertical dimension (vdr) is the lower face height measured from a chin point to a point just below the nose, with the mandible in rest position. (12 Dec 1998) |
| vertical displacement event | Disruption which occurs because plasma is not adequately stabilised against vertical motions. (09 Oct 1997) |
| vertical elastic | Elastic material used in a direction perpendicular to the occlusal plane, connecting one arch wire to the other, and usually used to improve intercuspation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vertical growth phase | Spread of melanoma cells from the epidermis into the dermis and later the subcutis, from which site metastasis may take place. (05 Mar 2000) |
