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. ...
