If the Doctor Specifically Told Its A Wisdom Tooth Then the better option is to remove it Its Its Any other tooth then its better to save that tooth because that tooth will help her too chew food.

If its the third molar (also referred to as wisdom tooth) I suggest you go for extraction, because many times due to its abnormal morphology, its complicated to do the rct. Even if RCT treated sometimes the pain does not subside and you have to eventually extract the tooth inspite of the treatment.

Rct is the batter option if tooth is not badly decayed. Get it done with crowns at some gud place.
