This drug is to decrease the amount of facial oil[sebum] to prevent acne. It is not contraindicated for having dental implants.

it is recommended that patients discontinue isotretinoin for at least six months before undergoing dental implant surgery to minimize the risk of complications. That drug complicates would healing and can lead to implant failure.
