Kindly get an x-ray done of the erupting wisdom tooth. If the positioning of the tooth is fine then kindly brush your teeth twice daily using correct brushing technique and do warm saline rinses. But if there is no space for the tooth to erupt then kindly get it extracted otherwise it will cause caries in your adjacent molar because of improper cleaning in that area.

Dear Well you can wait and see if its erupting properly into its correct position. If not you need to remove it off sugically.
