    Oil of clove will numb the pain and no need for a prescription. Get the tooth pulled it is far cheaper.

    I got a root canal and a temporary crown, a few years later I got a crown, many years later the crown came off because there wasn’t enough tooth to anchor it. I got the tooth pulled but I had waited so long that the tooth started getting absorbed into my jaw and it took 4-5 hours of hammering to break it out of my jaw. The dentist needed to take breaks from the hammering.

    My advice is don’t waste the time doing all the other steps when you will just need it pulled later. If you can get the tooth without it being broken you may get to make a custom implant in the future.
