I had that 2 years ago when I got dental implants. Takes 4-6 months to heal in properly but then it's as solid as rockNo, a pseudo bone graft. It's not my bone, but the oral surgeon described it as "powdered bone."
You'll need someone 18 or older to buy it for you :bigass:
Yes. It's a 3-parts system. Makes it easier to replace broken parts.That's intense...then they like put a screw in to anchor the new crown?
I hate teh dentist![]()

They drill a hole - 1/4 inch wide and about 2 1/4 inches deep - and insert something like a Rawlplug (TM) [sorry, no idea what you Americans call it] with a thread on the inside. It actually gets hammered into place.
Then they sew the flesh up over it and let the bone grow around the metal for a few months. After that, they cut the flesh open again, insert a screw with a little screwdriver and fasten a crown to it.
My dentist's table looked like a mix of a medieval torturer's and a modern DIYer's toolbox![]()
