After a lexical path concerning the status quo in the field of diagnostics of the masticatory system, sometimes apparently off topic, we have reached the stage in which all the discourses crystallize in clinical practice and therefore we will try to explain the reason for so much dialectical length. First of all, we can defend this strategy of conceptual exposure with the difficulty of the change of mindset which is generally innate in the human being as well as Kuhn explains well in his scientific philosophy of 'Paradigms'. He says that the new paradigms, namely the' Extraordinary Science 'generates tenacious opponents to its acceptance. This is also justifiable because there are a myriad of storytellers around although it is also true that the new paradigms destabilize the acquired power and that is why they are often rejected even by confirmed cultural environments.

Having said that, however, the fact is that here there is a human being called 'Patient' involved and the restriction of the cultural and progressive field does not go to the detriment of the man of power who is a professor or politician but exclusively of the patient. Since the project follows the Feyerabend philosophy, as already said somewhere, Masticationpedia shows all its loyal, democratic and ethical scientific thinking with ideas, facts and clinical cases, the rest will be time to judge the veracity of the project.

==Errors and causes==


Medical errors diagnose as much as the axioms on which therapeutic models are based are continually clashing between titans of the clinical scientific scene as some studies on the subject point out:

* Contributing factors associated with misdiagnosis included dentist knowledge and skills, inadequate time, lack of communication between colleagues, and cognitive biases such as premature closure based on prior experience. Some participants perceived that an error only occurs when the choice of treatment leads to harm. The strategies suggested by the participants to prevent these errors required adequate time to investigate a case, form study groups, increase communication, and place greater emphasis on differential diagnosis. <ref>Cathy Nikdel, Kian Nikdel, Ana Ibarra-Noriega, Elsbeth Kalenderian, Muhammad F Walji.

These three bibliographic references were enough to extrapolate some essential concepts such as '''standardized nomenclature''' which presupposes the need for formal methodologies as in mathematical and physical sciences and not subjective and / or exclusively descriptive models; The '''diagnostic process''' understood as an 'Observable' in which several elements are involved such as the observer, the measuring instrument, the patient as well as the ability to interpret verbal language and decode the encrypted signal of the observed system; place greater emphasis on '''differential diagnosis''', a key element that we will try to demonstrate practically with some cases mentioned in the previous chapters.

*'''standardized nomenclature''', which presupposes the need for formal methodologies, like in mathematical and physical sciences, and not subjective and/or exclusively descriptive models.
These quotations and questions have led us to a more appropriate and profound description of the topics covered in the previous chapters because we cannot talk about standardized nomenclature, diagnostic process and differential diagnosis without talking about:

In the next chapters, therefore, we will deal with showing the diagnostic difficulties and the axiomatic errors in formulating an ideological model in the field of masticatory rehabilitations.
