Please tell me if i should get my tooth removed or do a root canal?

Discuss that : With your dentist. Only he or she can know the prognosis of root canal, and whether it is better to try to save that tooth, or to remove it and to put in an implant.

See Prosthodontist: See the expert in tooth reconstruction - the prosthodontist. You will be gven the best options to choose from. If tooth is removed, get immediate imlant, if possible, or socket graft to preserve bony site. Good luck.
