Regarding tooth implant
I visited my nearby dentist, I had rct few months back. Now she told me that there is infection in tooth 4 and 6. And there is muscle loss. Now we have to do onlay in tooth 6 and Re-rct in tooth 4. And there is no guarantee that it'll work. For a month they will monitor and after that if it won't work they have to do tooth implant. So, my question is please guide me what should i do now. And what can be the best option regarding this. I'm also attatching my CT,X-Rays.

Hi from the xray the tooth numbered 6 can go for an onlay or a crown because the tooth structure is slightly compromised.
As for the tooth numbered 4 need an individual xray to see clearly if there is any infection and if it requires a re root canal treatment.
Get the molar (6) atleast filled as leaving it open can cause micro leakage and re infection.
Next Steps
Kindly attach individual xrays.
