Hello, Can a dentist please look at my xray and let me know if this tooth is savable? I have bleeding and pus that surrounds this tooth.

I would suggest a 3D CBCT scan of the tooth. Bone loss in between the roots of the tooth, might be an indication of a fracture, especially with those metal screw posts that were placed. If there is a fracture, the tooth will need to be taken out. Even if there is not a fracture, re-treatment of this tooth might prove difficult.
