Dental Implants in Sungai Buloh
Dental Implants
A dental implant is one of the most reliable and long-lasting ways to replace a missing tooth. Unlike other options, an implant replaces both the root and the crown which restores not just the appearance of your smile, but the full function of your tooth.
At Klinik Pergigian Polidental, we guide you through every stage of the implant process, from initial assessment to final placement, with transparency, care, and precision at every step.

What Is a Dental Implant?
A dental implant is a small titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone to act as an artificial tooth root. Once the implant has integrated with the bone (osseointegration), a custom-made crown is attached on top to complete the restoration.
The result is a tooth replacement that looks, feels, and functions very much like a natural tooth. It is fixed in place, does not affect neighbouring teeth, and can last for many years with proper care.
Types of Dental Implants
Choosing the Right Implant for Your Needs
Not all implant solutions are the same. The type of implant recommended depends on how many teeth need to be replaced, the condition of your jawbone, and your long-term goals. During your consultation, we will assess your situation and recommend the most suitable option for you.

Bone Grafting for Dental Implants
One of the most common reasons patients are told they may not be suitable for a dental implant is insufficient bone in the jaw. This is more common than many people realise, and in most cases, it simply means an additional step may be required before the implant can be placed.
A bone graft is a minor surgical procedure that adds bone material to the deficient area of the jaw to restore the volume needed to support an implant. The grafting material encourages the body’s own bone-forming cells to grow into the area, gradually rebuilding the jaw to a level where an implant can be placed securely.
Am I a Suitable Candidate for Dental Implants?
Most healthy adults are suitable candidates for dental implants. The key requirements are good general health, healthy gum tissue, and adequate bone density in the jaw. You may be a suitable candidate if:
- You have one or more missing teeth and want a fixed, long-term replacement
- Your gums are healthy and free from active gum disease
- You have sufficient jawbone to support an implant, or are willing to consider bone grafting if needed
- You are a non-smoker, or willing to stop smoking around the time of the procedure
- You are committed to maintaining good oral hygiene and attending regular dental check-ups
If you are unsure whether implants are right for you, a consultation with our dentist is the best first step. We will assess your suitability honestly and present all available options.
What to Expect During Your Dental Implant Procedure
The Dental Implant Process
Dental implants are not completed in a single visit. The process is carried out in stages to ensure the implant integrates properly and your final result is both functional and long-lasting.
A follow-up appointment is scheduled to ensure the implant and crown are functioning well. Routine dental check-ups and good oral hygiene habits are important for the long-term success of your implant.
Consultation
We begin with a thorough exam and dental X-ray to assess the health of your gums, and whether you have bone to support an implant (to see if bone grafting is needed).
The titanium implant post is placed into the jawbone under local anaesthesia. Once the implant is in position, the gum is closed and a healing period begins.
Over 3 to 6 months, the implant gradually fuses with the jawbone. This creates a stable, secure foundation for the final crown. A temporary crown or denture may be provided during this healing period.
Once the implant has fully integrated, an impression of your mouth is taken to fabricate a custom crown. The crown is then attached to the implant, completing your restoration.

FAQ on Dental Implants
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the implant placement procedure painful?
The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia, so the area is fully numb before we begin. Most patients are surprised by how manageable the experience is. After the anaesthetic wears off, mild soreness and swelling are normal for a few days and can be managed with prescribed or over-the-counter pain relief.
How long does the entire implant process take?
From placement to the fitting of your final crown, the process typically takes between three and six months. Most of this time is the healing and osseointegration period, during which the implant fuses with the bone.
How long do dental implants last?
With proper care and regular dental check-ups, implants are designed to last for many years. The crown on top may need to be replaced over time due to normal wear, but the implant post itself is built to be a long-term solution.
What if I do not have enough bone for an implant?
Bone loss is common after a tooth is extracted, especially if the gap has been left for some time. If you do not have sufficient bone density to support an implant, a bone grafting procedure may be recommended to build up the area before placement. This will be identified during your initial assessment.
Can I get an implant immediately after a tooth extraction?
In some cases, an implant can be placed at the same time as an extraction — this is known as immediate implant placement. However, this is not suitable for everyone. It depends on the condition of the bone and surrounding tissue at the time of extraction. Your dentist will advise whether this is an option for you.
What is the difference between a cheap implant and a quality implant?
Implant quality varies significantly by brand, material grade, and the expertise of the placing dentist. Lower-cost implants may use inferior materials, which can affect how well the implant integrates and how long it lasts.
Can smokers get dental implants?
Smoking can increase the risk of implant failure by affecting blood flow and healing. It is strongly advised to stop or significantly reduce smoking before and after the procedure. We will discuss this with you during your consultation and advise accordingly.
