Frown Failed root canal and dental implant question

Hi everyone. I sure could use some help/advice.

Bryanna if your reading this, I read a similar question from a user that you replied to about a decade ago - if you could chime in I would be forever grateful.

I had a root canal in Sep 2019. The tooth never felt right after the procedure. Prior to the root canal it had a dull throbbing ache that kept getting worse. My endo was not aggressive and we did the wait and see approach however it never improved so we opted to root canal it. . It was retreated twice over the course of 2 months due to pain. He used a microscope and noted that he did not see any cracks in the tooth. He medicated it (with what I am not sure however he is very well known so I don't think it was the formescal stuff) It had no odor that I can say. I would like to hope a well known Endo would not be using this.

We completed the final process in December and the adjacent tooth #13 was throbbing so he felt that one might have always been the issue. We treated that tooth as well with a root canal. That tooth appears to feel ok

In treating #13 he did note it did not look well inside and there was dying pulp but no infection as of yet. #12 had inflamed pulp as well.

Sorry to my question. #12 has flared back up yesterday with pain now upon biting. I believe it's infected so I see the endo tomorrow and I also have an appointment with an oral surgeon regarding extraction and implant. I believe I will remove the tooth as I don't want any further endo treatment. Can an implant abutment be installed safely at the time of extraction in this situation? If not what is the general wait for installing the implant and lastly this tooth is visible from the front what goes in place of it while waiting?

Thank you again.
