Re: Six month after smoking;
I am a cigar smoker. I stopped before and for a while after my first implant surgery. For my repair I did not stop. I did not see any difference in the healing.

Re: Anyone have luck getting independent insurance
Just an opinion. I suspect that an independent policy would be the least likely to cover an implant.

Re: Anyone have luck getting independent insurance
Not really the exact deal you are talking about, but I did buy my own health insurance and I will explain to you why it is best to just save up the money or take out a loan for the surgery. I live in a low population state and insurance has run health care here for many years. The insurance companie...

Re: Hello after 4 months of implantation i can go to dentist ;
I was the same as some of the other posts. I have permanent metal staples in my left foot. For several years after they were placed, I was required to take antibiotics before a cleaning.
