I am having difficulties making decisions about root canal treatment, can I have some advice?

Q.
tooth no 31 is loose. I am age 68 and though have reg. hygenist treatment and take good care of my teeth it seems I suffer from gum desease. It has been suggested removal of this tooth, root canal treatment to the 2 either side to enable a bridge to be fitted.WHAT is root canal treatment, I cant find anywhere it explained. Also another dentist suggested NO root canal,but laser to these teeth to strengthen them and then bridge fitted. Also a back lower moler has no bone left so huge deep hole which is kept clean. l dentist: remove tooth. other laser, bridge top and sides to stop food going in.
i dont WANT to kill my 4 front teeth, would prefer laser, where can I get this treatment in Uk or Israel where I live. thank you.
