Partially erupted wisdom teeth can lead to inflammation of the gums leading to pain . In the long run the food lodgement can lead to dravy not only of that tooth but the one in front of it . To prevent damage infection and discomfort to the wisdom tooth and the tooth in front of it I would advise it's removal.
