I have toothache and my teeth are in a bad state

Q. i have today been to an nhs dentist my teeth are in quite a state and have very bad toothache, as i am terrifed of going(burst in to tears when i got there)after examination i was told that 2 teeth need taking out. i beleve one does and asked if the other one could e root filled and a crown put on he said no that there was not anouth tooth. how much tooth does there have to be as i thougt mine had still quite a bit left. its acually 4th from the front at the top

A. If you do not trust this dentists judgment then i recommend that you book in to see another dentist for a second option. The dentist id obligated to tell you the best solution for you, if he feels that an root canal does not have a good prognosis and that there is not enough tooth for a crown then the solution is to have the tooth extracted.
