Patient Advocate (1000+ posts) Joined: Aug 2003 Posts: 1,627 | Hi Darrell, I took alot of time exploring the implants, asked tons of questions of people on this board and have talked to people in this area that have already had the procedure done. At NO time did anyone ever say to me that I had to wait two years?? What is your dentist's reasoning for this? Her opinion is in the minority, at least from what knowledge I have collected. Just wondered if you could elaborate a little for me. Thanks! Minnie
