Root Canal vs. Dental Implant

in Western Springs, IL

At Celes Dental Studio, we believe in preserving your natural teeth whenever possible. When a tooth is severely damaged or infected, a root canal can often save it, restoring its strength and function for years to come. While dental implants are an excellent option for replacing missing teeth, keeping your natural tooth is usually the best choice for long-term oral health. Dr. Bakshi and our team will carefully evaluate your situation and guide you toward the most effective treatment to protect your smile.

Nothing Is as Good as Your Natural Tooth!

We always remind our patients that nothing is as good as your natural tooth, not even the most advanced treatment. Saving your natural tooth should always be the first choice when dental treatment is needed. If Dr. Bakshi recommends extracting a tooth, ask them if it can be saved with root canal treatment. A tooth can be restored with root canal treatment and function like any other tooth in your mouth for the rest of your life.
