I would agree that 3 months should really be the longest you should wait. This would not mean that an implant would not be possible buy your husband would be at a higher chance of needing a grafting procedure prior to having the implant placed. The reason being the bone that the implant needs to go into shrinks once the tooth has been removed.

I hope this helps

Kindest regards
