Is it worth it to save my wisdom tooth?
OK, here's what is going on. I'm a 62 yo male. Went to the dentist yesterday and x-rays showed #1 and #2 with problems. (wisdom and molar?)
They are sending me to someone else for a consult whether it would be in the best interest to save #1. Both will need root canal and a crown.
Would it be wiser and/or cheaper to pull #1 and do the recommended actions to #2? or best to do both crown and root canal to #1 & #2?

it is never worth any amount to save a wisdom tooth. being the last tooth in the arch it is not needed. it is a waste of money and would not even be missed if you had it extracted which is why no dentist tried to talk you into replacing them afterwards.
