Deri,
My father (now age 70) has a couple since his 40s and they worked
well for him. He is having one replaced right now though and it has
been almost a year of dental work to get this implant replaced
because there were issues with having the gum/bone heal and then be
built up enough to attach a new implant. So, my only warning would
be that probably the first time around it would go more smoothly than
if you needed a new implant years later.
