Hello Ma'am ...either gingivectomy( removal of overlying gum)of that area could be done for getting pressure relieved or removal of wisdom tooth is the option. Kindly visit the dentist asap.

Hi..yes unfortunately no way to solve other than surgical removal in most of the patients. Your case based on picture clearly a case of surgical extraction. But , no need to worry as it would be Painless when done by a specialist. Wisdom tooth don't help in chewing. So removal is always recommended to avoid further infection

If the tooth is not causing any symptoms and not affecting the the tooth in front of it then extraction is not necessary.
