Description
"He who rejects change is the architect of decay. The only human institution which rejects progress is the cemetery." Harold Wilson, British Prime Minister Text, New York Times, January 24, 1967, pg. 12 When I was a much younger dentist, which now seems ages ago, I thought I had a lot of answers and not too many questions. Now, of course, it's the opposite: I have a few answers, but plenty of questions. Many of those questions revolve around the controversies involved with the diagnosis and treatment of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) problems and related orofacial pain. I thought I'd help myself out by ordering and carefully reading a spate of glistening new textbooks on the subject. I thought I'd find answers. All I found was more questions! The question that stands out from the rest is why is there a definite dichotomy between what a certain viewpoint in academia says, and what a certain viewpoint from the clinical world says? I think I have discovered several important reasons, and have devised a simple solution that may resolve at least some of the difficulties responsible for such polarization of opinion.
