Ortholysis

(noun): the wrapping around of a mathematical function under transformation into a higher nth-dimensional space where n > 2 and n ∈ ℤ+. This twisting occurs typically when a 2D function is integrated by rotating about the x-axis in order to find the volume of the 3rd-dimensional shape.

Ortholysis is used to describe this behaviour in various different sub-branches of integral calculus. The origin of this word is still unknown. However, this neologism was rumoured to have been coined by a Romanian scientist and mathematician. i
Student: "Would the integral of y=−ze^x about the x-axis give you some sort of pulsar-like ortholysis spirally thing?"
Teacher: "Sort of. It depends on your limits and of course the fact that your equation doesn't consider that a pulsar visualisation with that equation would be rotating about the y-axis!"
Teacher: "And also the fact that the center of mass is not represented accurately in any way and you'd need to make it asymptotic."

Orthotropics

Orthotropics is a type of treatment for the irregularities in the alignment and occlusion of teeth/jaws. It is not to be confused with the more mainstream Orthodontics, as the two fields have very key, fundamental differences in their philosophy.

Orthodontics is a treatment in which the central belief is that this malocclusion is caused by evolutionary reasons, where human jaws have evolved to become small and improperly shaped, causing difficulty in proper tooth eruption. However, evolutionary biologists have vehemently denied this due to the fact that the evidence shows that this cannot be true.

Orthotropics is a philosophy that believes that orthodontics only treats the symptoms of a problem, not the underlying cause - which is an enormous change in processed diet, improper head posture, and improper tongue posture among children.

Orthodontics treats patients using extractions and braces, while Orthotropics uses a palatal expander appliance fitted into the mouth. While Orthodontics treats a problem after it has occurred, Orthotropics aims to prevent the problem at a young age by guiding proper facial development to avoid craniofacial dystrophy.

The advantages of Orthotropics is that is doesn't just correct the tooth alignment, but also the growth and development of the jaw and face, provides a better result, and avoids unnecessary tooth extractions. Orthotropics is more effective but only works on children.
Friend 1: My kid is starting kindergarten this fall.

Friend 2: Get them started on Orthotropics ASAP. If you wait, you might not get optimal results. Orthodontics never made my teeth perfect. Don't make that mistake with your child.

Friend 1: That's true, I will contact an Orthotropist tonight.

OrthoThot

A western female who attends an Orthodox Church for the trad aesthetic to wear as a mask to find a man to marry, who would abandon that man on a dime and say God would forgive her as he is her “daddy”. Often orbited by Orthosimps whom they live off of like parasites.
Yiayia:“I can’t believe Ted got dumped! He seemed so in love and happy to do anything for Alice!”
Dmitry:“She’s a classic OrthoThot, she’ll probably be dating another guy at church and worse before they even get ecclesiastically divorced

Ortho simp: “it must be Ted’s fault, I bet he has a minor habitual sin (unlike me I’m so holy), or he wanted her to veil at church which is of course emotionally abusive.”
