They’re not bad; if you getting the one like I got
They’ll drill a hole down into the bone, rune a tap down it & then thread the titanium lower portion into the bone
It will have a screw on the top with a T-6 torx head
He may leave it above or below the skin until it heals up
After that, they’ll remove the screw & set your new tooth on top, thread the screw in to about 2.5”# (30 Newton cm) & put a small filler over the screw to prevent it backing out
That’s all there is to it
