Advanced Education
Full Arch
Immediate Loading
The FULL ARCH CLUB was founded in 2019 by Dr. Bernardo Nunes de Sousa, former physician at MALO CLINIC Lisbon, with the purpose of sharing ultra-reliable techniques for the immediate fixed rehabilitation of the atrophic jaws.
What started as a social media platform, soon became one of the world's leading
centers for implantology education in the field of full arch immediate loading.
We deeply believe that full arch education needs an update. And because of that, the MASTERCOURSE IN FULL ARCH IMMEDIATE LOADING was born.
To help you achieve immediate loading in situations that most doctors would think it's impossible.
We offer 2 education programs:
- Mastercourse
- Live Surgery Bootcamp
Welcome to the movement.
EDUCATION PROGRAMS

MASTERCOURSE IN FULL ARCH IMMEDIATE LOADING
This 3-day's experience is not your typical implant course. We will NOT teach you how to fabricate the perfect digital guide or the perfect DSD.
But we will teach you how to solve the most complex full arch cases in one day, with immediate loading, with no guides and no complicated or unnecessary regenerations or equipments.
We will teach you the most powerful techniques for that, we will show you in Live Surgeries, and you will train each of those techniques, until it gets automatic.
You WILL become a real full arch surgeon.

About the FULL ARCH CLUB

The FULL ARCH CLUB, founded by Dr. Bernardo Sousa, is a private network of doctors that teaches ultra reliable concepts in Full Arch Rehabilitation.

Since university, we have been told that atrophic cases usually need bone grafts, sinus lifts, artificial bone substitutes, collagen membranes, etc, BEFORE placing implants.

We have also been told that after those interventions, our patients have to wait months and months with a removable denture, causing speech issues and traumatic ulcers.

We have even been told that Immediate Loading is something rare, something only achievable in some ideal cases, in some ideal situations, in some ideal patients, by some Ultra-Gifted Doctors.

We don't believe in this anymore.
Our mission is to teach you Advanced Surgical Techniques that enable you to perform Immediate Loading in virtually 100% of the cases.
Our mission is to give you the knowledge and the confidence to treat the Most Difficult cases in One Day, with Immediate Loading.
Our mission is to train you to become a real Full Arch Club Surgeon.
