Dentist 's  Response
Hello, Thank you for consulting with HCM.
No it is not like that, that you have to get all your teeth removed, as it depends upon the level of infection.
If the infection is so that it cannot be restorable or root canal treated in that case the tooth is removed.
To diagnose it you have to get a full mouth x-ray with the dentist.
Hope it will help you.
