The removal of wisdom tooth placed near the nerve can be risky as it can cause damage to the nerve.
If the tooth is giving you pain/ trouble it needs to be removed by an expert/ oral surgeon. However, if it’s not giving you any pain or discomfort,it can be left as it is.

If the tooth is not infected and roots are very close to the nerve then sometimes a portion can be left inside. Clinical examination and X-rays are required to advise you properly
