A suspended ceiling system comprising a polygon-shaped ceiling tile (10) and a grid of profiles (30) supporting the ceiling tile (10), the grid of profiles (30) defining a frame (31) in which the polygon-shaped ceiling tile (10) is arranged and supported by supporting flanges (32) of the grid of profiles (30). The polygon-shaped ceiling tile (10) comprises at front surface (11), a rear surface (12) and at least three side edges (13) extending between the front surface (11) and the rear surface (12), wherein a side edge portion associated with each side edge (13) comprises a top tongue (14), a bottom tongue (15), and a groove (16) extending along the side edge portion and separating the top tongue (14) and the bottom tongue (15). The top tongues (14) comprise engagement surfaces (18) resting on the supporting flanges (32) of the grid of profiles (30), and a distal end (19) of each top tongue (14) extends beyond a distal end (20) of the bottom tongue (15) such that a bottom section (21) of the polygon-shaped ceiling tile (10) comprising the bottom tongue (15) and the groove (16) of each side edge portion is insertable from above into the frame (31) defined by the grid of profiles (30).
