Let me just clarify the myth surrounding this topic. First of all there is no implant specialist registered in Malaysia as of now. It is kind of a grey area where any dentist who is experience will be able to perform it. Oral surgeon claimed they are doing better because they do surgical stuff. Periodontist claimed they can do better because they are good with gum surgeries which results in aesthetic and strong implants. Prostodontist claim that they can do better because ultimately, they are the one who decide how your crown looks like and who cares what technique the dentist does as long as a strong nice implant is supporting a crown that allow patient to eat and smile nicely. And someone was saying the implant was placed without CBCT and guided surgery. To make it easier to understand CBCT and guided surgery VS free hand implant placement and normal 2D radiograph, I will just use a simple analogy. To drive from KL to putrajaya,  you can either take a mercedes or a kancil. But in the unfortunate event that you were to meet with an accident, I believe the driver of the Mercedes will be suffering less injury as compare to the driver of kancil assume of the same collision impact. However Mercedes is so much more expensive. Same thing over here, a CBCT and a 3D printed surgical guide can be better like a Mercedes but at the same time the cost will be so much higher. Do you drive a Mercedes because it offers better protection? If you are, then you are going to the wrong dentist that doesn't offer you something better which you can afford. There is no harm doing implants without CBCT or guided surgery as long as the dentist KNOWS the limits. Otherwise kancil would have been ban on the road. Please don't try to win a F1 race with a kancil. Maybe you can try with a Mercedes. But that doesn't make a kancil a useless scrap.
