In this episode of The Full Arch Podcast, Dr. Leke Olowokere continues the conversation with Dr. Tomasz Kaczyński, shifting from soft tissue principles to surgical decision-making. The focus is on how tissue strategy influences long-term full arch stability.

They discuss how restoring and maintaining your own cases changes implant depth, platform positioning, and tissue planning, with specific attention to mandible versus maxilla differences.

Key Highlights: 🔹 Ownership Changes Planning – Surgeons who follow their full arch cases long term make different tissue and implant decisions 🔹 Reference Tissue, Not Just Bone – Platform and MUA positioning should be planned relative to tissue levels 🔹 Arch Specific Strategy – Mandible and maxilla tissue conditions require different compensation approaches

In this episode of The Full Arch Podcast, Dr. Leke Olowokere sits down with Dr. Tomasz Kaczyński to discuss one of the most overlooked drivers of long-term full-arch success: soft tissue management. While implants and bone often dominate treatment planning, this conversation reframes tissue as a biologic foundation for stability.

They explore why soft tissue plays a different role in FP3 full-arch cases compared to single-tooth restorations, with a particular focus on the mandible. Dr. Kaczyński shares how tissue quality and biologic principles influence long-term stability and complication risk in full-arch treatment.

Key Highlights: 🔹 Biology Over Aesthetics – Why soft tissue matters more for stability than cosmetic outcomes in FP3 cases 🔹 Mandible-Specific Challenges – How tissue limitations in the lower arch contribute to long-term complications 🔹 Concepts Over Protocols – Using biologic principles to guide rational, case-specific surgical decisions

In this episode of The Full Arch Podcast, Dr. Steven Vorholt sits down with Dr. Paige Moorhead to talk about an often-overlooked factor in long-term surgical success: the surgeon's body.

They explore how strength training, conditioning, and recovery directly impact focus, stamina, and longevity in full-arch dentistry. From managing long surgical days to preventing chronic pain and burnout, this conversation reframes fitness not as a personal hobby—but as a professional responsibility.

This episode highlights why treating your body as an asset is just as important as refining surgical skill, especially for clinicians committed to sustaining a long, high-performing career.

Key Highlights: 🔹 Strength as Longevity – Why physical training protects surgeons over the long term 🔹 Energy and Precision – How fitness supports focus and performance in surgery 🔹 The Long Game – Building a body that can support decades of clinical work

In this episode of The Full Arch Podcast, Dr. Steven Vorholt reflects on the role vendor relationships play in a long, sustainable dental career — and why the strongest partnerships are built on trust, credibility, and consistency, not quick wins.

Rather than treating vendor relationships as transactional, the conversation reframes them as extensions of professional reputation. Dr. Vorholt shares how showing up with integrity, delivering real clinical value, and maintaining a long-term perspective opens doors to mentorship, education opportunities, and meaningful collaboration over time.

This episode emphasizes that credibility is earned quietly, relationships compound slowly, and the most impactful partnerships are rooted in alignment — not promotion.

Key Highlights: Relationships Over Transactions – Why long-term trust matters more than short-term opportunities

Credibility Comes First – How clinical consistency and professionalism build real leverage

The Long Game – Why patience, alignment, and reputation shape sustainable partnerships

In this episode of The Full Arch Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Grady Gores and Dr. Brenton Ruopp to dive into real-world questions around growth, efficiency, and leadership inside a single-provider implant practice.

The conversation explores what actually changes as a practice scales — from managing higher case volume and maintaining predictability to building systems and team trust that support long-term growth. Rather than chasing speed, the episode focuses on preparation, consistency, and decision-making that protect outcomes as demand increases.

In this episode of The Full Arch Podcast, Dr. Aaron Miller sits down with SPG CEO Dr. Alex Sharp to reflect on a powerful day spent filming patient testimonials — and the deeper lessons that surfaced from hearing real smile journeys back to back.

What stood out wasn't technique, hardware, or surgical details. It was how patients talked about trust, experience, and how being truly listened to changed everything.

Together, they unpack why patients remember how you made them feel more than what you did clinically, how fundamentals and consistency shape better outcomes, and why confidence is built long before surgery ever begins.

Key Highlights:

What Patients Really Remember – Trust, clarity, and how the experience made them feel outweigh technical details.

Smile Journeys Tell the Truth – Testimonials reveal the real impact of full-arch treatment when you slow down and listen.

In this episode of The Full Arch Podcast, Dr. Aaron Miller reflects on the emotional side of full-arch dentistry — the part surgeons rarely talk about. After spending a day filming patient testimonials with Dr. Alex Sharp, he realized how many life-changing stories go unheard, and how easily surgeons overlook the impact they make every single day.

Dr. Miller discusses the pressure clinicians carry, why failures can feel heavier than they should, and how celebrating fundamentals and patient transformation can restore confidence, purpose, and joy in the work.

Key Highlights: 🔹 You Don't Hear the Good Stuff – Patients share gratitude when asked, not during busy clinical days. Those stories matter. 🔹 Celebrate the Wins – Final prosthesis appointments shouldn't feel rushed. They're milestones worth honoring. 🔹 Stick to Fundamentals – You don't need fancy techniques to change lives. Master basics before chasing complexity.
