Ceramic Dental Implants vs Root Canals: A Holistic View

When a tooth is severely compromised, the choice is often between retreatment/root canal vs replacement. In select cases, replacing the tooth with a Ceramic Dental Implant can provide a metal‑free, esthetic solution, especially where prognosis for retreatment is poor.

Key Considerations

• Biology & Infection: Persistent infection can compromise long‑term outcomes. Extraction with immediate Ceramic Dental Implant placement may be considered when appropriate.
• Biocompatibility: Zirconia is inert and metal‑free, an advantage for patients prioritizing holistic care.
• Function & Esthetics: Modern monolithic zirconia crowns/bridges deliver natural esthetics and strength.
• Patient‑Centered Planning: Every case is unique; candidacy is determined after CBCT diagnostics and clinical evaluation.
