Hello,
Your pictures are not very clear specially the first one so the problem cannot be diagnosed properly .
For second picture Yes you require RCT in your permolar teeth as infection has almost reached pulp.
Please do get capping done after RCT to protect your tooth.

Hi, the images are not very clear. However the premolar definitely requires a root canal. I cant clearly see the molar tooth decay here because of the quality of the image.
