relation(s),

n the designation of the position of one object as oriented to another (e.g., centric relation of the mandible to the maxillae).

relation, acentric,

n See relation, jaw, eccentric.

relation, acquired centric,

n See relation, jaw, eccentric, acquired.

relation, acquired eccentric jaw,

n an eccentric relation that is assumed by habit to bring the teeth into a convenient occlusion.

relation, centric,

n (centric jaw relation), the relation of the mandible to the maxillae when the condyles are in their most posterosuperior unstrained positions in the glenoid fossae, from which lateral movements can be made at the occluding vertical relation normal for the individual. Centric relation is a relation that can exist at any degree of jaw separation.

relation, centric jaw,

n See relation, centric.

relation, cusp-fossa,

n See cusp-fossa relations.

relation, dynamic,

n relations of two objects involving the element of relative movement of one object to another (relationship of the mandible to the maxillae).

relation, eccentric,

n See relation, jaw, eccentric.

relation, eccentric jaw,

n (convenience relationship, eccentric relation, eccentric jaw position), any jaw relation other than centric relation.

relation, intermaxillary,

n the relation between the right and left maxilla. See also relation, maxillomandibular.

relation, jaw,

n a relationship of the mandible to the maxillae.

relation, lateral,

n the relation of the mandible to the maxillae when the mandibular arch is in a position on either side of centric relation.

relation, maxillomandibular

n any one of the many relations of the mandible to the maxillae, such as the centric maxillomandibular relation or eccentric maxillomandibular relation.

relation, median,

n See relation, centric.

relation, median jaw,

n a jaw relationship existing when the mandible is in the median sagittal plane.

relation, median retruded,

n See relation, centric.

relation, occluding,

n the jaw relation at which the opposing teeth contact or occlude.

relation, posterior border jaw,

n the most posterior relation of the mandible to the maxillae at any specific vertical dimension.

relation, protrusive

n See relation, jaw, protrusive; position, rest, physiologic.

relation, protrusive jaw,

n (protrusive relation), a jaw relation resulting from a protrusion of the mandible.

relation, rest,

n See position, physiologic rest.

relation, rest jaw,

n (rest), the postural relation of the mandible to the maxillae when the patient is resting comfortably in the upright position, the condyles are in a neutral unstrained position in the glenoid fossae, and the mandibular musculature is in a state of minimum tonic contraction to maintain posture.

relation, ridge,

n the positional relation of the mandibular ridge to the maxillary ridges.

relation, static,

n the relationship between two parts that are not in motion.

relation, unstrained jaw,

n the relation of the mandible to the skull when a state of balanced tonus exists between all the muscles involved.

relation, vertical,

n the relative position of the mandible in a vertical direction; one of the basic jaw relations.

Patient discussion about eccentric relation.

Q. Dental Caries and Stress are related? Can it be possible that dental caries (cavities) be caused by stress? It seems to me that it can, because stress can cause all kinds of other health problems then why can't it also cause cavities. I have tried to find answers to question online, but have been unsuccessful. Sure would be great to know the answer to this.

A. if you understand the question "dental carries and stress are related?"

there are many factors that cause cavities ...

- poor hygiene
- poor diet
- malnutrition
- disease or illness
- and stress

it is well documented in the medical and alternative fields

Q. can diet problems and adhd be related? Sometimes when I cant concentrate I tend to run to food. Its not out of hunger- I guess its more of a way to deal with the focusing difficulties. I'm really trying to loose weight and every time I have to study for example- I cant control eating instead. is there a known relation between the two?

A. what i mean is- it's fine. i think every one have this problem. all you need to do is get a healthy habit. it'll help you concentrate.

Q. I have a non cardiac breast pain, may be stress related. The stress is gone the pain still there. Any ideas? My pain seems to be concentrated on the breastbone (lower part)and it comes and goes. Stress does have an impact but not always. The pain is not severe but "nagging" and may grow to uncomfortable levels from time to time. All cardiac connections have been checked and are negative.

A. I just went through that this summer, they thought is was my heart again but after many tests they finally did a scope down my throat(not painfull at all) and found out I had ulcers, even though I never had heartburn or acid reflux. 6 weeks of Prilosic and problem solved. Does it help a little to eat when you feel the gnawing feeling in your stomach? Very good indication of ulcers.
