The dentist has advised you correctly, the tooth which you have shown had furcation involved. Such cases have very bad prognosis. Its advisable to extract the tooth.

Hello there…. See the condition of your tooth is very poor… The only option left is to get it extracted. So first thing is to get it extracted and as this is one of the tooth that needs replacement. So the best option will be to get an implant done there. You can consult me for further details on this treatment process thoroughly and why it need replacement with an implant.
Next Steps
Get it extracted as soon possible.
