My upper canine tooth is broken but the root is still intact. The x-ray shows that the roots are healthy and strong. I have been given options between a post and core treatment and a dental implant. My question is - is it wise to save whatever is left of the teeth and go for post and core? In case I go for post and core will there be a possibility of its failure in future? If it fails what options will I be left with? Or is it better to directly go with an implant now? I am a 25years old female
