Third molars should not be removed if they are aligned well and opposing arch is complete. RCT though difficult to perform, is the right answer though may take double time for a good operator to do so

I would advise to consult a nearby dentist and if he/she recomends rct then u should go for it....becoz tooth pain due to several reasons..and without seeing xray and clinical condition no body can tell anything definitive. ..
