Can alcohol impare success of dental implant?

Q. From what I have read on it I know that smoking can have serious implications whether or not the implant will be sucessful. But what about alcohol consumption? Is this another activity that should be limited or altogether stopped when I first get the implant?
A. Excessive consumption of alcohol especially during the healing phase of treatment can impair healing so it is best avoided for the first few weeks.
