Hello!Welcome to HCM.

Your doctor seemed to be doing everything possible to save your teeth.Check if a root planning will help saving them.
A clinical examination and x-ray is necessary to advise you.You can go for implants placed in the front teeth after extraction.
Implants almost simulate original teeth and superior to bridges.
Maintain good oral hygiene.
