Hello. You require an OPG (full mouth x-ray) to know the exact position and condition of the tooth.
In case of a wisdom tooth issue, it is best to get it extracted.
Wisdom tooth can later cause other problems like, pericoronitis (pain, inflammation, swelling of the gums of that region), TMJ disorders, cheekbite, inability to maintain proper oral hygiene.
For temporary relief, you may get the cusp of the concerned tooth smoothened (reduced), but, in the long run, extraction would be the best option.
Kindly visit a dentist for definitive treatment and diagnosis.
