Dental Implants Take 2 Years off Your Life? I Need Help Please!?

I have a friend who just got a tooth pulled out and she heard from someone that one dental implant takes two years off of your life. Now she is scared to get the implant! Can anyone tell me if this is real or fake so I can make her feel better about getting the implant. Thank you so much!

Suggestion:

Hello, Ok, someone is blowing smoke in your mouth…as opposed to any other place more commonly thought of…..Implants (of the dental variety) should have no life threatening issues involving them unless like any other procedure a serious infection should arise…However, your friend needs to know that while dental implants can be a wonderful procedure, they are not 100% successful…there are no current test that can predetermine if a persons body is going to accept the Implant…If the Implant is rejected it has to be removed and that procedure will cause bone loss to occur during the healing process in the area the Implant was removed……"AND"…many dentist (most in fact) neglect to tell the patient that he or she intends to charge an additional fee for the removal if the Implant fails…Tell your friend to get in writing that the removal procedures and any additional attendant services required due to Implant failure will be at the dentist expense….If the dentist doesn't want to offer that assurance your friend must assume the dentists hasn't complete faith in the service he or she has suggested…And by the way…complete healing after an Implantation takes weeks so your friend needs to be prepared for that as it will alter eating habits for sometime. Good luck and I wish you well.
