The root canal was already done when i was 12...He says I need one on the tooth next to it ( which i don't believe), and I've never had a cavity before in my life. I brush my teeth twice a day every day.
But I saw the x-rays for the wisdom teeth and those babies need to come out
One of the x-rays shows my jaw and the tooth right under some bone I would say, and the other wisdom tooth is on a crash course with one of my molars
