Bryanna,

Thanks for your advice. My Endodontist examined the tooth beside it and it's still OK. I have some questions:

1. Does extract the tooth guarantee 100% the Fistula problem will be gone and spread stops?

2. What happens if I extract the furthest back tooth (fistula tooth)? but infection has spread already? Does it mean I need to keep extracting each tooth? My Endodontist examined the tooth beside it and it's still fine at the moment.

3. So far, I have asked many people and they suggested to me to extract tooth because:
- This tooth has been infected for 2 years already
- The gums of the Fistula tooth don't look healthy compared to other areas
- A dental hygienist recommended me to extract because she said my tooth is weak. For example, if I wiggle the tooth, it moves more than my regular tooth.

I kind of decided to extract the bottom back molar tooth...but I don't intend to do TOOTH IMPLANT. Is it a big risk? My mom extracted her molar back tooth at 15 years old and tells me that it's OK.

If anyone else is reading, please provide suggestions/or your experience.

Thank you for your advice,
