It depends what is wrong with it, they will do and x-ray and see if a filling or root canal can help instead of pulling it out

This would depend on what might be wrong with the tooth. There could be an infection, or part of the tooth might be broken below the gum line. If it's badly decayed, the tooth may have to be pulled, or if it's not too badly decayed, the dentist may want to do root canal therapy.
In any event, if you are experiencing tooth pain, by all means consult your dentist.

There's too little information here. Even a dentist reading this would advise you to...ask your dentist. Sorry.

Simple answer is probably a filling will do the trick
