Default Root canal

Don't know if this x-ray will come out.
A relative was just told she needs a root canal of tooth #30.
I don't trust dentists or their off shoot "professionals."
Bryanna, If you can see the image I just tried to down load, can you tell me if this tooth is indeed "in trouble?"
The consultation is this morning. I just hope he doesn't talk her into doing it right away.
BTW, she had another consultation and was told the cost would be close to $1000 on top of her dental insurance.
She is not particularly interested in removal or implant.
I'm at a loss right this second...come to think of it...I think I'm going to call her right now and tell her to listen to the endo. but don't do a thing. This endo. is on her dental plan and "allegedly" the cost is less. I'm just very sad about the entire ordeal. I spoke to her dentist and he said it was "too far gone" for a filling. So, how does it look to you?
Thank you.
