A proper checkup is required to assist you anything on this.
If the extra tooth is vestigial.... extraction is the best option.
Extra tooth's unnecessarily cause food lodgement.
If the tooth is functional.... orthodontic treatment might be required

Most probably the milk teeth hadn't shed (fallen off) in proper time, which is resulting in permanent teeth being erupted (coming out) in abnormal locations. Or it may be a case of Supernumerary teeth (teeth other than normal milk teeth or permanent teeth, and much smaller) which is quite rare.

Visit a dentist for proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
