lipping
Creating a rim
Lipping is the formation of bony outgrowths at joint edges, typically from osteoarthritis or degenerative changes.
Doctors note lipping on X-rays as a sign of joint wear.
In other contexts, lipping refers to using the lips—a wind musician's embouchure technique, or the action of waves lapping at edges: Water was lipping at the dock.
