Respected sir
Why waste a valuable tooth by sacrificing it. Although the cost burden may seem more my advice is to retain it with an rct if it can be done and get a crown placed as no artificial material can replace a natural tooth
Next Steps
Rct consultation

Hello
Always try to save your nature teeth. If root canal treatment is possible then go for it and put crown after root canal treatment. If you remove your teeth and not replace the same then it can lead to other problems.

Your tooth can be saved by RCT with normal function ..
For that radiographic evaluation is required...
Simply don't go for extraction..
