Dental Legacy

Dental Legacy (formally registered as Klinik Pergigian Dental Legacy Bandar Dato' Onn) is a dental clinic established in 2018 in Bandar Dato' Onn, a modern township in the northern part of Johor Bahru, Malaysia, within the Iskandar Malaysia economic development corridor. The clinic was founded by Dr. Ahmad Munir bin Muji, a dental surgeon who graduated from the University of Otago in New Zealand and brings a background in hospital-based oral and maxillofacial surgery to private practice. Dental Legacy has grown into a multi-dentist practice with a team of four dentists, each with distinct clinical specializations, serving a broad range of patients from routine preventive care to complex surgical and implant procedures.

The clinic's guiding motto is "Beautiful Smile Speaks Thousand Languages," a phrase that reflects its commitment to accessible, high-quality dental care that transcends language and background. The practice places particular emphasis on patient communication: reviews from patients consistently describe dentists at Dental Legacy as thorough in explaining treatment options, unhurried in consultations, and skilled at putting anxious patients at ease. The clinic is housed in a street-level shophouse unit at Jalan Perjiranan 2 in Bandar Dato' Onn, with a support team that includes a CEO and multiple trained dental surgery assistants.

Clinical Team

Dr. Ahmad Munir bin Muji, the clinic's founder, holds a Bachelor of Dental Surgery from the University of Otago in New Zealand and qualified in 2010. After beginning his career as a dental officer in government hospitals, he served in the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Department at Hospital Sultanah Aminah in Johor Bahru -- one of the main public hospitals in southern Malaysia -- where he developed specialist-level skills in oral surgery. His clinical focus at Dental Legacy is dental implants and oral surgery, and he brings a level of surgical experience to private practice that is relatively uncommon among general dental clinics.

Dr. Najiha Fatimah binti Mohd Yussuf qualified from Alexandria University in Egypt in 2017 and joined Dental Legacy in December 2021. She has a special interest in conservative dentistry and endodontic treatment (root canal therapy), and is also noted for her ability to treat children gently and effectively, making her a popular choice for younger patients at the clinic. Dr. Zakiyya binti Roslan also graduated from Alexandria University, Egypt, in 2016, and brings experience from both government dental clinics and private practice. Dr. Mohammad Aizuddin bin Abu Bakar graduated from the International Islamic University Malaysia and contributes to the clinic's general dentistry offering with a focus on patient comfort and clinical thoroughness.

Dental Implants and Oral Surgery

Dental implants and oral surgery are the signature specializations of Dental Legacy. Implant treatment involves the placement of a titanium post into the jawbone, which integrates with the surrounding bone and subsequently serves as a permanent, stable support for a crown, bridge, or overdenture. The result is a tooth replacement that is functionally and aesthetically indistinguishable from a natural tooth. The clinic uses OPG and CBCT x-ray technology to assess bone anatomy and plan implant placement with precision before surgery begins.

Minor oral surgery at Dental Legacy encompasses surgical extractions, wisdom tooth removal, and other soft-tissue and bone-level procedures. Dr. Munir's background in hospital maxillofacial surgery gives the clinic a higher level of surgical capability than many general practices, and patients with complex extraction cases or those who are apprehensive about surgical procedures benefit from being treated by a clinician with that level of experience.

Orthodontics

Braces and orthodontic treatment are available at Dental Legacy for patients seeking to correct the alignment of their teeth and bite. The clinic offers conventional braces as well as clear aligner treatment, with One Smile Aligner as a featured aligner system. Orthodontic treatment corrects crowding, spacing, and bite discrepancies, and the benefits extend beyond aesthetics: properly aligned teeth are easier to keep clean, wear more evenly, and place less strain on the jaw joints over time. The clinical team assesses each case to determine the most appropriate treatment approach for the individual patient's needs and timeline.

Restorative and Endodontic Treatment

Dental Legacy provides the full range of restorative dental services, including tooth-coloured composite fillings, dental crowns for heavily damaged teeth, and bridges to replace missing teeth using adjacent teeth as support. Root canal treatment is a core service at the clinic, and patients have praised the comfort and clarity of care they received during these procedures. Dentures -- both full and partial -- are available for patients who need a removable solution to replace multiple missing teeth.

Aesthetic Dentistry and Preventive Care

Aesthetic dentistry at Dental Legacy includes teeth whitening -- with express whitening available at the clinic -- and a full range of cosmetic improvements to enhance smile appearance. Preventive care forms the foundation of the clinic's general dentistry offering, with regular scaling and polishing available to maintain gum health and tooth cleanliness. Dental radiography including OPG (orthopantomogram, a full-arch panoramic x-ray) and CBCT (cone beam computed tomography, a three-dimensional scan) supports diagnostic accuracy for complex cases. The clinic is open every day from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm and is closed on selected public holidays.
