Abstract
There have been many advances in the replacement of teeth, especially using dental implants. There are a number of other options for when a tooth is lost; however, there is also value in maintaining a tooth with the provision of root canal treatment and a good coronal seal. This article summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of each option with supporting evidence from the literature. CPD/Clinical Relevance: This review article provides an updated practical perspective to decision-making when it comes to teeth requiring root canal treatment.
