If the tooth is a permanent tooth, then there are two possible treatment options: extraction or root canal therapy (RCT). Extraction is the removal of the tooth, while RCT is a procedure to remove the infected pulp inside the tooth and fill the tooth with a biocompatible material. The decision of whether to extract or perform RCT will depend on a number of factors, including the severity of the infection, the age of the child, and the overall health of the tooth. If the infection is severe, then extraction may be the best option. However, if the infection is not severe and the tooth is otherwise healthy, then RCT may be a viable option. Ultimately, the decision of whether to extract or perform RCT should be made by a dentist or oral surgeon after a thorough examination of the tooth. Here are some additional information about extraction and RCT: Extraction: Extraction is a relatively simple procedure that can usually be performed in a dentist's office. The tooth is numbed with local anesthetic and then removed using a dental drill or elevator. After the tooth is removed, the dentist will stitch the gum closed. Root canal therapy: RCT is a more complex procedure that requires two or more visits to the dentist. During the first visit, the dentist will numb the tooth and remove the infected pulp. The tooth will then be filled with a biocompatible material and sealed. During the second visit, the dentist will remove the stitches and check the tooth for any signs of infection. If you are concerned about your son's tooth, I recommend that you take him to see a dentist or oral surgeon for a consultation. They will be able to examine the tooth and recommend the best course of treatment.

It’s permanent first molar that usually erupts at age of 6 yrs. If this tooth has carious exposure, go in for RCT. The tooth should be saved.

Looks like permanent 1st molar is having deep cavity. RCT needs to be done. Do visit a local dentist/Pedodontist for physical evaluation and treatment.
