Patients who have been told that a dental implant case is unusually difficult may need more than a routine implant consultation. Mićunović Medical combines an oral surgeon in Podgorica, prosthodontic expertise and a wider clinical team that includes anaesthesia specialists.
Dr Miljan Mićunović leads the oral-surgery side of the dental team, while Dr Petar Mićunović is a specialist in dental prosthetics. This separation is particularly relevant when treatment involves both complex implant placement and a complete fixed restoration.
The clinic is located at Slovačka 22 in Podgorica and has provided dental care since 1983.
Start with why your implant case is considered difficult
Some patients contact an implant clinic after a relatively straightforward tooth loss.
Others arrive with a very different history.
You may have severe bone loss in the upper jaw, previously failed implant treatment, an unsuccessful graft, a long period wearing a complete denture or a recommendation for extensive bone augmentation.
Those details should shape the consultation from the beginning.
Mićunović Medical has developed a particular interest in advanced implant and oral-surgical cases. Dr Miljan Mićunović is an oral surgeon with additional experience in zygomatic implant rehabilitation.
For a patient with significant bone loss, the useful question is therefore not simply, “Can you place implants?”
Ask which surgical route fits your anatomy and why.
Dr Miljan Mićunović and the ZAGA connection
Dr Miljan Mićunović graduated from the Faculty of Dentistry in Pančevo and continued his professional development in oral surgery and implantology.
He is also recognised within the ZAGA Centers network for work with zygomatic implants.
Zygomatic implant treatment has a very specific purpose. These longer implants can become an option in selected patients with severe upper-jaw bone loss when conventional implant placement presents major limitations.
However, being treated at a ZAGA centre does not mean that every patient needs zygomatic implants.
Many people can still receive conventional implants. Others may need bone augmentation, a different implant configuration or another restorative approach.
If you have been told that you “do not have enough bone”, bring the imaging that led to that conclusion.
The aim should be to understand what type of bone deficiency exists before choosing the surgery.
Zygomatic expertise should not turn every case into a zygomatic case
An advanced procedure is valuable when it solves a problem that a simpler treatment cannot solve predictably.
It should not become the starting point simply because a clinic has expertise in performing it.
Patients considering an oral surgeon in Podgorica for major upper-jaw reconstruction should therefore ask whether conventional implants remain possible.
If grafting is an alternative, ask what it would involve.
If zygomatic implants are proposed, ask what anatomical finding makes them preferable in your specific case.
This discussion is especially useful if you have already received conflicting opinions from different implant clinics.
Bring those plans with you.
A meaningful second opinion should explain why the proposed strategy differs rather than simply replacing one treatment name with another.
Surgery and the final teeth are two different clinical problems
A complex implant reconstruction does not finish when the implants enter the bone.
The patient ultimately needs teeth that fit the implants, bite correctly and can be maintained.
That is where the structure of the Mićunović team becomes particularly relevant.
Dr Miljan Mićunović is the oral-surgery specialist, while Dr Petar Mićunović specialises in dental prosthetics.
For a full-arch case, ask how the surgical and prosthetic plans are coordinated before treatment begins.
Implant position affects the restoration that follows. At the same time, the planned position and design of the future teeth should influence surgical planning.
Patients should know who is responsible for each stage.
Ask who plans the implant positions, who designs the temporary restoration and who approves the definitive prosthetic work.
Temporary fixed teeth are not the end of treatment
Some full-arch implant protocols can allow fixed temporary teeth during the early treatment stage.
A temporary restoration has an important function while the implants heal.
It should not be confused with the definitive prosthesis.
If immediate loading forms part of your proposed treatment, clarify what determines whether it is clinically possible on the day of surgery.
Implant stability and the surgical findings can influence that decision.
Also ask when the clinic expects to replace the temporary teeth with the definitive restoration.
International patients need this information before assuming that a complete implant rehabilitation requires only one trip.
The surgical visit can be fast. Biological healing still takes time.
Four implant systems appear in the clinic’s current treatment information
Mićunović Medical currently lists several implant manufacturers rather than presenting one implant brand as suitable for every patient.
These include:
- Nobel Biocare
- Sweden & Martina
- Camlog
- JDental Care
This gives the surgical team more than one system to consider.
For the patient, however, more brands do not automatically mean a better result.
Ask which implant system the oral surgeon in Podgorica recommends for your own treatment and why.
After surgery, keep written information about the implant manufacturer, implant dimensions and components used.
This becomes particularly important if you live in another country and need maintenance years later.
A dentist at home may need to identify the exact implant connection before replacing or repairing a prosthetic component.
Anaesthesia expertise is visibly represented within the team
The current Mićunović Medical team includes Dr Dejan Maraš, a specialist in anaesthesiology, reanimation and intensive care, together with an anaesthesia professional.
That is a relevant feature for a clinic dealing with larger surgical cases.
It does not mean that every dental patient needs sedation or deeper anaesthesia.
The appropriate method depends on the procedure, medical history, level of anxiety and clinical assessment.
If your proposed treatment is extensive, ask what form of anaesthesia the surgical team recommends.
Patients taking regular medication should provide an accurate medical history before surgery.
This is particularly important with anticoagulants, cardiovascular conditions, diabetes and other conditions that can influence surgical planning or healing.
Do not stop prescribed medication independently before dental surgery.
Three dental surgeries and a separate sterilisation area
Mićunović Medical describes its dental centre as having three treatment rooms and a separate sterilisation block.
This information is more useful than a generic claim that the clinic has “modern facilities”.
A multi-room clinical setup can matter when different dentists contribute to one case.
A separate sterilisation workflow is also part of the underlying clinical infrastructure rather than something a patient sees only in a treatment photograph.
The clinic additionally states that it uses current-generation dental X-ray diagnostics.
For complex surgery, imaging requirements should still depend on the actual procedure.
If you already have a CBCT scan, ask whether it is recent and detailed enough for the surgeon to use or whether new imaging is required.
A panoramic X-ray and a CBCT do not answer the same questions
Patients sometimes send a panoramic dental X-ray and assume that it contains all information needed for implant surgery.
It can provide an excellent overview of the jaws and existing teeth.
Complex implant planning can require three-dimensional information.
CBCT imaging can show bone dimensions and anatomical structures from perspectives that a two-dimensional panoramic image cannot provide.
If you have severe upper-jaw bone loss, this distinction becomes even more important.
Send any existing imaging before travelling, but allow the oral surgeon in Podgorica to determine whether additional diagnostic information is necessary.
A remote opinion should remain preliminary until the surgeon has adequate imaging and clinical findings.
Dr Petar Mićunović adds a prosthodontic perspective
Dr Petar Mićunović is the clinic’s specialist in dental prosthetics.
This becomes relevant when a patient needs more than implant survival.
The future teeth need an appropriate bite, shape and restorative design.
For someone replacing an entire arch, ask what material the team proposes for the temporary restoration and what it proposes for the definitive teeth.
Also ask how the final prosthesis attaches to the implants and how it should be cleaned.
Maintenance is particularly important when you return to another country.
Before treatment ends, you should know which parts can be serviced by another dentist and when Mićunović Medical recommends professional review.
Orthodontic specialists are also part of the current team
The current dental team includes specialists in jaw orthopaedics and orthodontics.
This may appear unrelated to complex implant surgery, but it can matter in selected restorative cases.
A patient with remaining natural teeth may have positioning or bite problems that influence a larger reconstruction.
Moving a tooth can sometimes be a more conservative choice than preparing or replacing it.
For an international patient, orthodontics also creates a practical limitation.
Ongoing tooth movement requires repeated monitoring over time.
If orthodontic treatment enters a proposed rehabilitation, ask how often you would need to return to Podgorica and whether follow-up can realistically work when you live abroad.
The current clinic address is Slovačka 22 in Podgorica
Mićunović Medical currently operates at Slovačka 22, Podgorica, Montenegro.
Use this current address when organising your journey rather than relying on older clinic listings that may show a previous location.
The clinic’s Google profile currently has a rating of 4.6 out of 5 based on 76 reviews.
Reviews can provide context about communication, organisation and previous patient experiences.
They cannot answer whether zygomatic implants, conventional implants or bone augmentation are appropriate for your jaw.
For complex treatment, give more weight to diagnostic findings and the proposed surgical-restorative plan than to a rating alone.
International patients can discuss treatment in several languages
Dr Miljan Mićunović’s professional ZAGA profile lists communication in English, Albanian, Italian and Spanish.
This can be particularly useful when treatment involves a complex surgical explanation.
A patient should understand more than the name of the procedure.
Ask the surgeon to explain what anatomical problem the treatment addresses, what alternatives exist and what could cause the planned approach to change during the clinical assessment.
If you do not understand part of the consent discussion, ask for clarification before treatment begins.
Complex surgery is not the place to rely on assumptions.
What should you send if you have severe bone loss?
A patient contacting Mićunović Medical for a difficult implant case should provide more than a request for an implant price.
If available, send:
- a recent panoramic X-ray;
- CBCT imaging;
- previous implant records;
- information about failed implants;
- details of previous bone grafting or sinus surgery;
- photographs of the teeth and smile;
- an existing full-arch treatment plan;
- details of current dentures or bridges.
Also explain what other dentists have already told you.
If one clinic has said that conventional implants are impossible, include that information.
It gives Dr Miljan Mićunović a much clearer reason for reviewing the case.
Questions for a complex implant consultation
Patients considering an oral surgeon in Podgorica for advanced implant treatment should leave the consultation understanding several points.
Ask whether conventional implants remain possible.
If not, ask exactly why.
Find out whether bone grafting represents a reasonable alternative and what additional treatment time it would require.
If zygomatic implants enter the plan, ask how many are proposed and what other implants would form part of the reconstruction.
Confirm whether fixed temporary teeth are expected and what clinical findings could prevent immediate loading.
Then discuss the definitive restoration separately with the prosthetic team.
Finally, establish how many visits to Podgorica the complete treatment is expected to require.
Those answers allow you to compare treatment plans rather than comparing marketing claims.
When Mićunović Medical deserves closer consideration
Mićunović Medical is particularly distinctive when an implant case moves beyond routine replacement of one missing tooth.
Dr Miljan Mićunović brings oral-surgical and zygomatic implant experience. Dr Petar Mićunović contributes specialist prosthodontic knowledge. The wider team includes anaesthesia and orthodontic expertise.
That combination can become relevant for extensive rehabilitation or severe bone loss.
A patient who only needs a simple restoration may not need this level of surgical infrastructure.
Someone who has already been refused conventional implants, experienced failed treatment or received several very different full-mouth proposals has a stronger reason to seek this type of assessment.
The value lies in matching the complexity of the clinic to the complexity of the problem.
Preparing a Mićunović Medical case through NewHolidays
When contacting Mićunović Medical through NewHolidays, describe what has already happened rather than starting only with the treatment you think you need.
If you have been told that you lack enough bone for conventional implants, say so.
Mention failed implants, previous grafting, existing dentures and any full-mouth treatment plans you have already received.
Send recent panoramic or CBCT imaging when available.
For a large surgical case, include relevant medical conditions and regular medication so the clinical team knows that further medical assessment may be necessary.
NewHolidays can pass this case-specific information to Mićunović Medical and help clarify which records the surgical team wants to review before you decide whether travelling to Podgorica makes sense.
Dr Miljan Mićunović and the Mićunović Medical team remain responsible for examination, diagnosis, surgical suitability and the final treatment plan.
