In this episode of The Full Arch Podcast, Dr. Leke Olowokere sits down with Dr. Tomaz Kaczynski from Warsaw, Poland, to explore how full-arch dentistry has evolved across Europe — and what U.S. clinicians can learn from it.

They unpack Tomaz's journey from perio to full arch, why his workflow moved from graft-heavy timelines to immediate solutions, and when FP1 vs FP3 truly makes sense for long-term success. Tomaz also shares how pterygoids transformed his complication rates, the biggest lessons from thousands of arches, and why patient psychology matters just as much as surgical skill.

Key Highlights:

FP1 vs FP3 Clarity – Why FP1 preserves future options but demands precision, and when FP3 offers a more predictable path.

Pterygoids Reduce Failures – How adopting pterygoid anchorage dramatically lowered complications from tilted maxillary implants.

Case Selection Is Everything – Lifestyle, health, and patient mindset often matter more than bone. The right "yes" starts with the right "no."

🎧 Listen to Episode 146 — Dr. Leke Olowokere and Dr. Tomaz Kaczynski to learn how global experience, disciplined planning, and a refined full-arch philosophy drive predictable, long-term outcomes.
