The one on the left is definitely healthy, the right definitely dead. You can choose not to snip it off, it's alright, but if you want it to look a bit more tidy and free some space you can cut it off. You know it is dead when it's dry and light (compared to a healthy root) to touch. You can mist it more often, lack of humidity can cause the roots to die.

Thanks so much for the info! I don't want to over-mist, so I wanted to know whether it could be revived.
