Yes, you can , even once the implant its integrated and strong. The hygiene around the abutment and crown , needs to be perfect, if not remember that the gap between the implant and the gum, has no ligaments ,so this can be an area of food or bacteria storage, causing all this you are saying. If...
Hi,Ideally 3 weeks is enough time to recuperate after implant / graft placement and there should not be any difficulty while long distance flying.I would still recommend that you speak to your dentist about the same before the surgery.Regards
