Cos’è Masticationpedia

Masticationpedia è un progetto scientifico-editoriale innovativo, nato dall’osservazione di importanti anomalie cliniche, scientifiche, editoriali e professionali nel campo delle riabilitazioni masticatorie. La sua mission è affrontare tali criticità in modo aperto e costruttivo, proponendo soluzioni alternative e originali che mirano a restituire alla professione odontoiatrica il suo pieno valore medico, oltre ogni approccio tecnico-artigianale. Il progetto opera all’interno di una cornice filantropica, in quanto Charity Anglosassone senza fini di lucro, impegnata a promuovere cultura, scienza e innovazione nel settore sanitario.....continua a leggere 📚 Il progresso scientifico e il cambiamento di paradigma
Il progresso della scienza – e, con esso, il miglioramento della qualità della vita umana – non coincide necessariamente con un’evoluzione graduale e incrementale, spesso trainata da dinamiche industriali. Talvolta, l’autentico avanzamento nasce da una rottura di paradigma, alimentata dalla forza rivoluzionaria dell’ingegno umano.

🎯 Il caso dei numeri complessi e delle trasformate di Fourier
Le moderne trasformate di Fourier, oggi impiegate in campi diversissimi, rappresentano un’evoluzione progressiva del concetto di numero complesso. Tuttavia, la svolta concettuale che ne è all’origine affonda le sue radici molto più indietro nel tempo:
- Già nel III secolo a.C., Erofilo di Alessandria iniziava a immaginare entità numeriche oltre il reale.
- Nel 1545, con la pubblicazione dell’Ars Magna di Gerolamo Cardano, apparve per la prima volta l’uso esplicito delle radici quadrate di numeri negativi, sebbene con il sospetto implicito del termine immaginari.
- Nei secoli successivi, matematici come Rafael Bombelli, René Descartes (che coniò proprio il termine immaginario), e Leonhard Euler, ne formalizzarono l’uso, trasformando un’idea astratta in una colonna portante della scienza applicata.

🧭 Da quell’atto concettuale rivoluzionario ha preso forma una lunga catena di innovazioni matematiche e tecniche.

📌 Masticationpedia si colloca all’interno di questa stessa dinamica: non come semplice estensione del sapere esistente, ma come progetto paradigmatico, capace di ridefinire la modalità con cui la conoscenza clinica viene concepita, modellata e condivisa.

How to Participate

Become an Approved Expert

Log in with your verified LinkedIn profile and apply to contribute to the scientific development of Masticationpedia. Click on the box title to start the registration and approval process and join the Scientific Community that founded Masticationpedia. If you want to know more about why this strategy was conceived...continue reading🔗 Contributor access via LinkedIn

Masticationpedia selects its contributors through LinkedIn to ensure transparency, security, and editorial quality. Users with an active LinkedIn profile can request an account through a specific form, using LinkedIn credentials according to the Single Sign-On model.

🧭 Strategic principles of access
The adopted approach is based on two fundamental criteria:

1. Qualitative selection through LinkedIn: the exclusive use of the LinkedIn profile allows targeting an already qualified audience that meets the editorial and scientific requirements of the platform. This method ensures targeted communication, avoiding anonymous applications or those lacking verifiable professional references.
   

1. Security and isolation from digital noise: selective access through LinkedIn protects Masticationpedia from cyber vulnerabilities and excessive communication related to generic email addresses.
   
   

📩 Registration procedure
The interested user registers through their LinkedIn profile (Single Sign-On); Masticationpedia analyzes the profile, evaluates its consistency with its criteria, and responds via direct InMail message on LinkedIn. .

The Book Index represents the beating heart of Masticationpedia. It is not a traditional encyclopedia, nor an editorial magazine. Rather, it is a democratic and collaborative knowledge model, where only carefully selected professionals – recognized as authoritative voices in their scientific field – share their know-how with the community, whether scientific or broader.

🎯 Two fundamental principles
The project is distinguished by two essential characteristics:

1. A coherent thematic direction: all contributions follow a precise conceptual track – the theme of complex masticatory rehabilitations – avoiding the random publication of disconnected articles. This approach ensures coherence, scientific continuity, and editorial credibility.
   
2. A philosophical-paradigmatic function: each content aims to highlight the anomalies of clinical and scientific reality, offering a critical reading of existing paradigms and stimulating reflection and innovation.
   

🧭 A three-level structure
The Book Index is divided into three macro-areas, organized according to a path of increasing depth in scientific reflection:
🔹 Normal Science (public access): describes the state of the clinical-scientific art in the pathophysiology of the masticatory system. It is the starting point for understanding the current context.
🔹 Crisis of Paradigm (access reserved for registered members): highlights the conceptual anomalies and methodological limits of conventional diagnostic models. Here, dogmas, validation criteria, and unsustainable clinical approaches are questioned.
🔹 Extraordinary Science (access reserved for affiliates): proposes new theoretical-clinical paradigms in the field of masticatory functions. It is the advanced laboratory where knowledge evolves and regenerates.

This step represents a fundamental stage in the professional's journey, endowed with a dual value: a formative component, and a distinctive one.
🎓 Formative value
Through the structured study of the contents present in the Book Index, the clinician consolidates an advanced know-how in the field of complex masticatory rehabilitations. This training is not limited to theory but translates into operational skills that range:
🔹 from the diagnosis of orofacial pain
🔹 to implant-prosthetic rehabilitations
🔹 to orthodontic and orthognathic multidisciplinary approaches

The result is an integrated, systemic training that connects pathophysiology to the therapeutic plan in a coherent and updated manner.

🔖 Distinctive value
At the same time, the clinical application of these contents translates into a 🎯 consciously neurophysiological professional practice. The professional who adopts this vision:
🔹 proposes treatments centered on the real physiology of the masticatory system
🔹 differentiates from conventional approaches still tied to obsolete or dogmatic schemes

This new approach not only improves therapeutic efficacy but also strengthens the professional's clinical identity, distinguishing them for competence and innovative vision within the scientific and medical community.
