I'm not sure why they would give her a root canal. Where they do an extraction they need to put in a space retainer so her adult teeth have space to come in later. The cavities need to get fixed for sure and the crowns are probably for cavities too deep to just fill in. If you just yank out the bad teeth the rest will move into that space and leave no room for her adult teeth. Plus, she's only 5 so she's going to have those baby teeth for awhile longer.
Basically I'm saying I would have everything done except the root canal which I would question. I would also get a second opinion and quote. Did you take her to a pediatric dentist?
