hey, don't sweat it. If the canine is able to be saved, go for it. If not and you decide to have it removed, you can always go to a canine dentist later and have a false tooth implanted there. They make a mold out of the other existing canine and then implant it there. The implants are pretty costly, but it also depends on the model. My friend's cane corso broke his upper and lower right canines. The two canines got extracted and he was given an option on implants. The ones made from titanium or ceramic, he chose titanium due to the cost. The only issue with titanium would be the color since when the dog opens his mouth, you see two grey metal fangs in place of his canines. Total procedure costs quite around $3000, but he said most of the money was due to the price for paying an anesthesiologist. The titanium implants were pretty cheap, about 300 or so each.
