Masticationpedia:Academy/es
La ciencia queda a menudo atrapada en un limbo desconectado de la realidad social tanto de la odontología como de la ciudadanía.
La autorreferencialidad, la distorsión de los datos, y los condicionamientos industriales, determinan a veces un grave estancamiento de los contenidos, cuando no una repetición de teorías y dogmas; éstos son a veces revisitados y re-presentados con un ropaje diferente como quien habla todavía de TENS en los tratamientos de ortodoncia[1] sin saber que esta técnica fue apenas criticada y considerada inadecuada para el uso clínico en 1973[2].
Tenemos a nuestra disposición una gran cantidad de temas científicos de extraordinaria innovación paradigmática, pero no tenemos la capacidad de explotar su ventaja clínica. Las razones de esta ralentización en la transferencia de la "Ciencia" al ciudadano a través del dentista son los principios fundamentales de la Masticationpedia.
Masticationpedia nació de la conciencia de esta realidad y es por ello que, gracias a las donaciones intelectuales de algunos científicos y colegas, es posible difundir gratuitamente la ciencia básica innovadora. A través de donaciones financieras será posible crear un fondo para lanzar proyectos científicos y sociales en todo el mundo de acuerdo con esta filosofía científica.
Each project will be carried out once the established budget is reached, also through crowdfunding. To obtain the maximum diffusion of the contents, as well as to be able to comment on them, the use of these online courses through Youtube was chosen. Subscription to the Youtube channel will give you the opportunity to always be informed about new editions.
It should be borne in mind that these online refresher courses have the requirement of a theoretical clinical implementation that will give the colleague, interested in the neurognathological rehabilitation model, the opportunity to continue their training and achieve the qualification to use the Masticationpedia methodologies. Practical training will take place through courses directly in the 'Training Centers' which will be formed over time and which will give life to an innovative model called Masticationpedia Network. The academy will provide a professional update contextualized to the topics covered in Masticationpedia. It should be borne in mind that the Refresher Courses in Masticationpedia Academy have the requirement of widely disseminated clinical scientific information; they are therefore mainly online, while the training and qualification courses will be dealt with in the Masticationpedia Network.
What kind of update is implemented in the Masticationpedia Academy?
Masticationpedia is a scientific project that targets the implementation of a specific sector of medicine: masticatory rehabilitation.
This is a very broad topic, ranging from orthodontics to implant-prosthetic rehabilitation, but also has an important position in the field of neurophysiology, both in the field of Orofacial Pain and degenerative diseases and neuropathies in general.
In Masticationpedia Academy the usable topics will therefore have a variety of themes that will be schematized in a specific way (see below).
The Academy will provide two types of online professional updating

What should I do to follow the updates?
Nothing, you can follow the updates without any restrictions, although if you want to comment, implement the project or discuss a specific topic you can do it in the 'Discussion' page (only as a registered user).
Updates consist of an educational model meant to prepare colleagues who want to join the Masticationpedia Network. For more information please see Masticationpedia Network.
How can I contribute?
There are several ways to implement and support Masticationpedia. Anyone can make an intellectual and/or economic contribution.
- About the economic contribution, there are no restrictions: if you wish to donate to this Project, you can access the 'Donate' section and decide your method and form of donation
- About the intellectual contribution, there are instead some more stringent rules. All colleagues who want to donate part of their know-how in video form, must first register and then send a video submission request to the 'Research' email in the Contacts section
