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. ...

Shaping the Debate: Opinions in Full Arch Implant Dentistry with Dr. Damon vs Dr. Stanley: Part 1
The debate of pterygoid and zygomatic implants takes center stage as two masters of implant dentistry present dramatically different philosophies on full arch restoration. Dr. Robert Stanley, a dual-trained PhD engineer and dentist, maintains that 99% of patients can be successfully treated without remote anchorage techniques when proper prosthetic principles are applied. Meanwhile, Dr. Damon reveals he incorporates pterygoid implants in virtually all his cases, citing biomechanical advantage...
