In a bold advancement for hands-on dental education, Pikos Institute announces its newest and most immersive program to date: the Full Arch Live Surgery Course – 1:1 Patient Training. This unique opportunity allows clinicians to perform full arch implant procedures on live patients—while receiving direct mentorship from some of the world’s most respected leaders in implant dentistry.
As full arch procedures continue to evolve and become a cornerstone of modern implant practice, clinicians are seeking more than classroom lectures—they want real-world experience they can immediately apply to their practice. This course delivers exactly that, combining didactic training with live patient surgery, all within a controlled, high-support educational environment.
“This course gives clinicians the opportunity to truly apply what they’ve learned,” said Dr. Michael A. Pikos, Founder and CEO of Pikos Institute. “They don’t just watch—they treat. From diagnostics and planning to live surgery and restoration, they’re guided step-by-step to build confidence and skill.”
From Education to Execution: A Complete Full Arch Learning Experience
The Full Arch Live Surgery Course is designed for implant clinicians who have foundational surgical experience but want to master full arch protocols in a meaningful, applied way. The course begins with comprehensive training on treatment planning, CBCT analysis, case selection, digital design, and the All-on-XYZ protocol developed by Dr. Pikos, which emphasizes the importance of Implant (X), Bone (Y), and Soft Tissue (Z) in achieving long-term success.
Once attendees complete the pre-surgical modules, they are matched with a patient whose case fits their clinical goals and experience level. The Pikos Institute team handles all patient logistics—from case screening and imaging to provisional restoration and follow-up care—so doctors can focus fully on the learning experience.
Live Surgery. Real Patients. Full Team Support.
During the course, each clinician will perform a full arch implant surgery, including guided implant placement, bone reduction, soft tissue grafting, and same-day prosthetic loading—all while being supervised and coached 1:1 by Dr. Pikos and his faculty.
What sets this program apart is the infrastructure built around the learner: attendees are supported by a full team including in-house prosthodontists, dental assistants, lab technicians, and digital designers to ensure seamless delivery of treatment.
Course highlights include:
CBCT-based case analysis and workflow development
Digital surgical guide and prosthetic planning
1:1 supervised full arch surgery (All-on-XYZ methodology)
Immediate provisionalization with chairside guidance
Post-op and follow-up protocols for optimal healing
Onsite mentorship from top leaders in implant dentistry
“This is more than a live course—it’s a complete, real-world system that helps doctors not only refine their skills but leave them ready to implement full arch implant workflows in their own offices,” added Dr. Pikos.

Travel coordination assistance
