Hello mam...
yes your x ray shows you have cavity in the 2 nd molar teeth next to the implant teeth which is due to horizontal impaction of that wisdom teeth...
Wisdom teeth is one that fails to erupt in its normal position in the given period of time...
it is the extra teeth
Consequences of wisdom teeth:
** Pericoronitis
**Trismus (Difficulty in opening the mouth)
**causes erosion of nearby teeth and causes sensitivity and pain in that
**Bad breathe
As your doctor said you need to go for extraction of wisdom teeth followed by Root canal treatment of the 2 nd molar teeth as the cavity reaches inside of the teeth approaching pulp(Nerve layer)
Next Steps
kindly visit dentist for furthur clinical examination and management

As per your RVG Xray, your pulp chamber of second molar is exposed. It is either due to carious lesion or due to resorption by the force of the third molar.
Next Steps
The sooner you get your third molar extracted the better will be the outcome. Also get a Root canal treatment of your second molar with a good crown.
Health Tips
For the time being you can use Desensitising toothpaste and a mouthwash.
