For the socket, I believe it
takes 3 to 6 months before the bone is fully
grown onto the implant. I believe the femoral
bone is something that continually remodels,
since it is alive. I believe that it is weaker
initially after surgery, but strengthens with
gradual activity, to the point that it is
probably strong enough for impact activity at 6
months.
