Specialization & Clinical Focus

Dr. Lim specializes in complex implantology and reconstructive procedures. He treats conditions such as periodontitis and paradontosis using surgical techniques. Periodontitis and paradontosis are severe gum infections that damage the soft tissue and destroy the bone supporting teeth. His practice includes All–on–4 and All–on–6 dental implants. These procedures replace a full arch of teeth using four or six titanium posts.

The specialist also performs zygomatic implants and bone grafting. Zygomatic implants are longer dental screws that anchor into the cheekbone for patients with severe jawbone loss. He is a recognized specialist in Maxillofacial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. Dr. Lim provides sedation dentistry for patient comfort. He uses 3D imaging for precise mandible CT diagnostics.

His surgical expertise extends to wisdom tooth removal and dental cyst surgery. He also performs aesthetic procedures like porcelain veneers and Hollywood Smile makeovers. These cosmetic treatments involve placing thin covers over teeth to improve their appearance.
