That depends: Just because your teeth hurt, it does not mean they need to be pulled. There are many treatments that can save even badly damaged teeth. You need an evaluatin by a dentist so that you can determine your best treatment options. If extractions are necessary, there are many different options for replacement.

I am sorry to hear: Of how you were treated. In order to know if your teeth should be pulled you will need a comprehensive dental evaluation. Take care.
