Masticationpedia:Academy
Masticationpedia Academy
Very often science remains sarcophagous in a limb disconnected from social reality considering the social reality also the dentistry not only the citizens.
The self-referentiality, the distortion of data and industrial conditioning, at times, determines a stagnation, beyond measure, of the contents if not a repetition of theories and dogmas revisited and re-presented with a different dress like who talks still about TENS in orthodontics treatments[1] without to know that this technique was hardly criticized and considered unsuitable for clinical use in 1973[2]. This last topic will be dealt with in detail in the specific chapters of Masticationpedia.
We have a wealth of scientific topics of extraordinary paradigmatic innovation available but we do not have the ability to exploit its clinical advantage. The reasons for this slowdown in transferring 'Science' to the citizen through the dentist is the 'primum movens' of Masticationpedia.
Masticationpedia was born from the awareness of this reality and it is for this reason that, thanks to the intellectual donations by some scientists and colleagues, innovative basic science can be spread at no cost and, contextually, with the economics donations that will be made, we will can realize a fund in order to active scientific and social projects in all over the world sensitive to this ideology.
Each project will be carried out with the budget available without having to look for funding from credit institutions, government agencies or investors (see Brainstorming).
In order to obtain the maximum diffusion of the contents, as well as to be able to comment on them, it was chosen the fruition of these courses through Youtube. Subscription to the Youtube channel will give you the opportunity to always be informed of new editions.
It should be borne in mind that these online update courses have the requirement of a theoretical clinical implementation that will give to the colleague, interested in the neurognathological rehabilitation model, the opportunity to continue their training and reach the habilitation to employ the methods according to the guidelines set point from Masticationpedia.
Practical training will take place through courses directly in the 'Education Centers' that will be formed over time and which will give life to an innovative model called Masticationpedia Network. (follow the rationale of the project in Masticationpedia Network)
The Academy will provide two types of online professional updating
