"Masticationpedia" explores shifts in scientific understanding within medicine and dentistry through Thomas Kuhn's paradigm shift theory, advocating for interdisciplinary approaches. It highlights a crisis in dental paradigms, particularly in treating masticatory disorders. Traditional models, focusing narrowly on symptoms and mechanical corrections, are deemed insufficient. The document suggests adopting a new paradigm integrating insights from various disciplines for a holistic understanding of masticatory functions. | "Masticationpedia" explores shifts in scientific understanding within medicine and dentistry through Thomas Kuhn's paradigm shift theory, advocating for interdisciplinary approaches.
