JIMENEZ YONG, Yiliam; SANTOS PRIETO, Dania; VELIZ CONCEPCION, Olga Lidia y JIMENEZ MESA, Luis Miguel. Theoretical elements that support the reasoning of the diagnostic approach in the resident in Orthodontics. EDUMECENTRO [online]. 2022, vol.14 Epub 01-Ene-2022. ISSN 2077-2874.
Introduction:
in Orthodontics, interest is given to more holistic concepts based on the advances of the scientific-technical revolution, with repercussions on growth and development studies, the appearance of cephalometry and the incorporation of computerized techniques, which influenced the diagnostic approach and therapeutic planning in this specialty.
Objective:
to present the theoretical elements derived from the scientific-technical development that support the reasoning of the diagnostic approach in the Orthodontic specialty.
Methods:
a bibliographic review was carried out in the main medical electronic databases (Scielo, PubMed, EBSCO, Scopus, Scholar Google) and in printed materials. 20 were reviewed in Spanish and English; Out of them, 14 were scientific articles, four were books, a thesis, and a specialization program. Key words were used: health sphere, scientific-technical revolution, diagnosis in Orthodontics, multidisciplinarity, interdisciplinarity, transdisciplinarity.
Development:
as a result of the scientific-technical revolution, the traditional concepts that had supported the diagnosis in Orthodontics move towards new ones that go beyond the narrow framework of the biological-natural approach, with a marked tendency towards the holistic vision of health, in which the whole human being is cared for.
Conclusions:
the reasoning for the current diagnosis approach is based on the Orthodontics specialty programs, showing that the comprehensive analysis of the organism during the diagnosis process allows knowing the true etiology of orthodontic problems and carrying out a better preventive and curative work, in order to raise the quality of life of the population.
