Multiple dental problems flaring up

I have periodontal disease and generalized bone loss. I went to a dentist recently due to swelling in gums and he said we'd have to remove the molar because he can't save it so we allowed the extraction. Now I think I should have at least confirmed that this is the only way to go about it from other specialists. He mentioned grade 2 mobility in that molar and few  other teeth. He said that I have my wisdom teeth pushing into neighbouring teeth and due to my condition I'd lose all my teeth soon and all I can do is wait for it to happen. I have been prescribed rexidine-m forte gel+ sensoform gum paint to prevent any further loss. I had tartar buildup and I was recommended deep cleaning. But after that my gums have been very sensitive. I'm quite frustrated about this condition. Is there a way I can save my teeth? I'm attaching my x-ray from a month ago for reference.
