Hello sir...
Based on your X-ray the caries appears close to the pulp...If you dont have the symptoms of pain then you can go for simple fillings with calcium hydroxide sub base...if the pain arise then root canal treatment followed by capping is the only consevative procedure to save your teeth
Next Steps
kindly visit dentist immediately for furthur management

What are your symptoms? The X-ray is not very clear, but the cavity doesn’t seem to be deep enough to warrant a root canal. However, the deciding factor is your symptoms, and the clinical presentation
