Why It’s Important to Save Natural Teeth

In this video, Dr. Ruedi Tillmann explains the advantages of preserving natural teeth and how it impacts long-term oral health. If you’re in Kaysville or Greater Salt Lake City, UT, arrange a free consultation to discuss the best solutions for saving your teeth.

Some patients come in with the expectation that dentures can perform just as well as natural teeth. While dentures are a valuable solution, nothing can truly match the function and health benefits of your natural teeth. Maintaining your natural teeth should always be the priority.

I strongly encourage you to care for your teeth by brushing, flossing, and attending regular dental check-ups. Avoiding the need for implants, bridges, or crowns is the best approach to long-term oral health. However, life can present situations where teeth are lost, and replacement becomes necessary.

In these cases, dental implants provide an excellent opportunity to restore your smile and function. Immediate implant placement can help you regain confidence and oral health efficiently. While we’re here to support you with advanced treatments if needed, prevention and maintenance of your natural teeth remain the ultimate goal.
