About The Programme

IMU’s Postgraduate Diploma in Implant Dentistry (PGDID) Programme provides training in implant dentistry specially designed for general dental practitioners. It is Malaysia’s first and only MQA accredited Postgraduate Diploma in Implant Dentistry. The curriculum is benchmarked against The Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh’s Diploma in Implant Dentistry Examination.

The Postgraduate Diploma in Implant Dentistry includes a total of 6 modules sequenced based on simple to advance cases taught by eminent and experienced full-time and adjunct faculty including clinicians cum academicians of various disciplines such as Oral Surgery, Prosthodontics, Periodontics, Radiology.

Dental implantology is not considered a specialist discipline worldwide and thus no qualification in implant dentistry will be accepted for registration in the Specialist Register of the Malaysian Dental Council.

This course is a terrific course for dental practitioners who are beginning their implant careers to those with much more experience. It leaves you with both the interest and confidence to start working with implants. It is very comprehensive and covers all aspects of placing dental implants. The teaching from a large number of specialists (periodontics, oral surgery, prosthodontics) has been excellent and has benefited all colleagues from absolute novices to those with more experience.
