Dentist to perform 2 extractions and told me he would also need to do root canals on same teeth.
Why is it necessary to perform root canals if he is taking the 2 teeth out?

Is it common for dentist to perform root canal when he is going to extract a tooth? My dentist wants to extract 2 teeth adjacent to a "root canal" tooth. He said he also wants to do root canals on both teeth to be extracted and then, replace with bridge. I do have abscess in the area.
