Hi from the opg attached the lower right molar even though root canal treated , shows signs of infection.
Clinical evaluation required for the same to check if the tooth is symptomatic. If so re treatment needs to be considered.
The upper two premolars which are root canal treated look good but needs to be capped.
The adjacent space with the missing tooth can be utilised as well and maybe a cantilever bridge can be done in that region or an implant and two crowns on the premolars.
The upper wisdom tooth on the extreme left is drifting down also called supraeruption as the antagonist/ opposing tooth is not there.
Get a consult and get that extracted.
Otherwise some generalised spacing present.
Next Steps
Kindly visit a dentist and get a thorough clinical examination.
Hi
Right lower teeth in which RCT is already done seems to be infected, missing teeth on the right upper side should be addressed.
