What if the “new” thing in full-arch isn’t actually new—and the real breakthrough is remembering what already worked? We sit down with Dr. Samuel Jirk to unpack eight decades of subperiosteal design and how those lessons should guide today’s patient‑specific implants. From the first time he watched a 14‑unit FP1 delivered over 10 implants at daybreak, to building an in‑house digital lab, his path reveals how mentorship, biomechanics, and occlusion still decide who gets predictable outcomes. ...

The waiting room tells the story before we do: patients are traveling, paying more, and asking for three‑on‑six because it feels like teeth—thin, cleanable, and quiet—without carving bone to hide bulk. We sat down with Dr. Randy Roberts and Dr. Logan Lock efor a candid look at FP1‑based full‑arch care, and why a prosthetic‑first plan can upend old assumptions about high smile lines, bone reduction, and “the lab will save it” thinking. Across a week in their clinic, we watched uncherry‑picked...
