Interdisciplinarity in Dentistry

Why the Engineering Paradigm helps solve complex orofacial problems

🔹 Why this matters

 • Complex orofacial cases require cross-disciplinary reasoning. 
• It reduces tunnel vision caused by single-discipline assumptions.
• It transforms anomalies into design inputs for better care.

📘 What you’ll learn

 • How interdisciplinary “scaffolds” improve communication. 
• Examples of neuro-occlusal co-diagnostics.
• Practical takeaways for team-based rehabilitation.
Interdisciplinary paradigm
   The “Engineering Paradigm”: connecting disciplines as a network.
