What is Oral Rehabilitation

Internet of Behaviors Implementation in Organizational Contexts
Is a process that encompasses a set of practices by which people with HL have optimizing abilities to present oral communication. Can include the use of auditive prosthesis or ear implants e.g. the cochlear implants. Several biomedical studies are going on combining molecular genetics and cells regeneration in order to restore ciliated cells whose damage is the major cause of sensorineural HL cases, as age-related hearing loss, due to the incapacity of Human being regenerate these cells.

Abstract
Scientific and technological developments are unquestionable, being health in general and human genetics specifically, domains where high throughputs are gorgeous. The internet is changing the behavior of patients with clinicians and health organizations. The project of human genomes ensured new approaches to estimate cause-disease relations. Genotype-phenotype correlations and screening of mutation are now available to all researchers. However, the scientific data are also available to the patients, bringing them to the floor as active partners in therapeutic processes searching with ”Dr. Google” for symptoms, treatments, and cures. Hereditary deafness is not escaping from this civil movement, being a good example of the behavioral change associated with the explosion of the internet, with the commercial offers of hearing aids and cochlear implants offers to be common nowadays. In the chapter, the authors discuss the internet of behaviors in the context of biomedical sciences as human genetics, and hearing loss.
