Can my throat ache be caused by me teeth?

Not likely: You would have to have a very serious infection that was spreading towards your throat. If this were the case it would be a very serious situation that would require immediate attention, because of the possibility of having your airway close.

Wisdom teeth: Wisdom teeth that are erupting or that are inflammed can make it feel like you have a sore throat. Have your dentist check out your teeth and if they are fine, see your physician for the sore throat.
