ABSTRACT
Los vertiginosos cambios que suceden en el mundo han transformando las organizaciones influencia de la que no son ajenas las empresas de salud. Las empresas del futuro deberán ser funcionales a todo nivel; para ello es indispensable que posean un rumbo estratégico expresado claramente y procesos operativos definidos que faciliten la gestión y garanticen su supervivencia. Como factores claves para asegurar el éxito en las organizaciones modernas se presume tener una filosofía empresarial congruente con su cultura; dominar a profundidad el ámbito de su negocio, contar con políticas consecuentes y constructivistas dirigidas tanto a clientes internos como externos, fomentar una cultura empresarial de prestación del servicio con base en la calidad de los procesos, implementar apropiadas políticas de selección y motivación del talento humano a su interior, poseer adecuados sistemas de comunicación, realizar monitoreo y evaluación permanente del entorno para aprovechar oportunidades y anticipar impedimentos.
Vertiginous world wide changes also trigger transformation along the organizations, including health enterprises. The future enterprises must be multilevel functional and have defined their strategic goals including definition of processes facilitating their operation. Actually at all level health teaching enterprises should have a thought strategic direction and defined operative rules in order to have a functional structure that facilitates taking decisions and consequently have defined processes that allow them to respond appropriately to the influence of the environment and other social actors. The success key for modern organizations is to have an appropriate philosophy and managerial culture, to possess deep knowledge of the area of business, to have political managed and constructive rules for both: the internal and external clients in order to offer quality services, to rule appropriate communication models and to make a permanent evaluation of the environment. All that must allow them to respond appropriately to threats and opportunities.

Para establecer consideraciones importantes sobre el diseño de las prótesis dentales parciales removibles se presentan algunos criterios respecto a la necesidad de considerar lo que sucede en las articulaciones temporo-mandibulares (ATM), cuando el caso por resolver es unilateral o cuando es bilateral. Se debe recordar que el sistema estomatognático cumple con 32 funciones dentro de las cuales las ligadas con la masticación, la digestión oral y la fonoarticulación cambian rotundamente si hay la carencia de los dientes posteriores. Pero esta carencia también compromete dos funciones generales de mucha importancia para la persona: el equilibrio y la alteración auditiva. Por ello formular y confeccionar las prótesis dentales removibles no es algo tan simple que lo pueda hacer un simple dentista y menos un mecánico dental sin la dirección de un profesional. Como la tarea es muy compleja, este es el primero de varios artículos mediante los cuales se tratará de reorientar el tratamiento rehabilitador del subsistema masticatorio como parte del sistema estomatognático.
Partial dental prosthesis is a very important field of dental rehabilitation process that usually is not well understood, mainly because it involves the repercussion on more than 10 of the 32 functions performed by the stomatognatic system. In order to fit several very important considerations about partial removable dental prosthesis design, some discernment about the need to consider factors that could affect the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) are presented, particularly when the lack of teeth is unilateral or bilateral. It is necessary to take on account that stomatognatic system performs the mastication, the oral carbohydrate digestion, the vocalization and other functions that could change drastically when there are no sufficient posterior teeth. But this lack also affects two general functions: the dynamic balance and the listening capability. All of those factors are very important to formulate and to produce high quality removable dental prosthesis; therefore, this kind of work couldnt be performed by a simple dentist or by a dental prosthetic technician without a professional guidance. Since this is a very important and complex assignment, this paper is the first of a four assay being oriented to improve the rehabilitation treatment of the masticatory system as a part of the stomatognatic system.
