Can trismus be a symptom of apparition of a wisdom tooth that doesn't have place in mouth?

Possibly: Infection and muscle spasm are the leading causes of trismus. Infection of a wisdom tooth can cause this. Get to an oral surgeon for evaluation and treatment.

I think you mean: Can trismus be caused by eruption of a wisdom tooth when there isn't enough space. It certainly can, but in that case there is usually an infection. Tries us should be evaluated in person by a dentist.
