Is your grandmother diabetic? Ideally an xray will help decide if we can safe the tooth. If it can be saved root canal is the way to go, otherwise extraction will likely resolve the problem, provided her general health is fine. Do get a consultation with a root canal specialist.

An Iopa(x ray) of Tooth in question has to be removed to give a correct diagnosis and treatment plan. But if the tooth is firm a root canal would be possible

Get an IOPA X-RAY done for the tooth and proceed according to the X-rays findings. Sometimes cavities happen from the side of the teeth, which are not visible. Please check if she has a problem with food getting struck in the gums..,as it also causes pain though no problem may be there with the tooth. Please explain to the dentist if she is on medication for any medical condition before proceeding with treatment.
