If the extra tooth is not giving any problem to you ,,then you may forget the extraction,sometimes it becomes difficult to clean that tooth due to its crowded position in which case it is likely to develop into a carious or decayed tooth,,see a dentist in person and let him take the final decision as per the clinical condition.
