Tooth infected 5 years after apicoectomy - should I have this done again or should I consider a dental implant? (photos)

edonad
About 5 or 6 years ago i had an apicoectomy done but now the same tooth has been infected again. Now the question is, is it worth to try another apicoectomy treatment and save the tooth or get the tooth extracted and get an implant, i really cannot decide what to do, i am only 28 years old.
