Will I need to stop smoking for dental implant procedure?

Q. Would you be able to tell me how long it is before and after the dental implant procedure that you are unable to smoke? I smoke cannabis for medical reasons and will maybe need to intake the medication a different way if I am unable to smoke for a sufficient space of time?
A. I usually ask my patients to quit smoking if they are having implants , as this can affect the success rate of the procedure and longevity of the implants. Those who do not have to be aware of the risks.
