In this crossover episode, Dr. Adam Hogan sits down with the hosts of The Fixed Podcast (Smile Now Dental Group) for a real, unfiltered conversation about full-arch implant dentistry.

They dive into:

• Scaling to nine implant-focused offices without sacrificing clinical quality
• Why “people first” beats rapid, reckless expansion every time
• The truth behind “fully digital” claims, photogrammetry buzzwords, and bargain-bin $9,999 arches
• AI receptionists, call centers, and why the human element still matters—especially for a 65-year-old calling at 5 a.m.
• Condylar-centric VDO, alveoplasty, FP1 vs. zygos, remote anchorage, and why most complications start with poor fundamentals
• The future of biomaterials, why printing will win over milling, and how AI will reshape design and lab work

Dr. Hogan also talks about burnout in the analog era, how photogrammetry and facial scanning made full-arch fun again, and why young docs need mentorship, not shortcuts. If you’re in the full-arch world—or thinking about jumping in—this episode is a masterclass on doing it responsibly and playing the long game.
