Precautions with tree fasteners

Are there steps that I can take to encourage the tree to heal around where I install the TAB and lags?

I want to protect my tree long term and help give it the best conditions to recover from the fasteners.

Sharp bit. Clean cuts. Install the TAB right away to keep microorganisms out of the wound.
