Has my dentist screwed up my implants? (Photo)

santropy
While drilling my dentist broke some piece of bone. His helper said, "oh it broke!". But they did not tell me anything. He chipped off pieces of bone with some tool and then he went on drilling a different hole. The implant area is quite sluggish. I feel the implant is too close to the adjacent tooth. Please tell me if he screwed up from the images. If he has broken the bone then will it grow back?Will the implant fail? Should I be worried? If he has broken the bone then will it grow back?
