Tartar - Hard calcium formed on teeth and dentures; Also known as calculus (RCP)
Temporomandibular joint – Connecting hinge between the lower jaw and base of the skull; Also known as TMJ. (RCP)
Temporomandibular joint disorder - Acute or chronic inflammation of the temporomandibular joint which results in significant pain and impairment (RCP)
Tooth Abcess - Collection of infected material caused by a bacterial infection in the pulp of a tooth. (RCP)
Tooth fracture - A tooth treated for root canal can fracture for different reasons. When heavy calcium oxide is used, if a filling is improperly sealed, or if a non-diagnosed radicular fissure or fracture is present, an excessive quantity of liquid would then show a vertical fracture. When gutta-percha is used, the above reasons are also true for gutta- percha filled tooth, plus, since this material needs to be heated to be manageable and because of its consistency it needs to be applied with pressure in order to properly fill the area, this aggressive manipulation plus vertical condensation from the material can cause a vertical fracture (ADBQ)
