Could Be: Most people don't have enough room for the wisdom teeth. When they start to erupt, they pinch the soft tissue in the area. See an oral surgeon for evaluation.

See your dentist: Your wisdom teeth could definitely be a contributing cause for the trauma to your cheek. See your dentist for evaluation and recommendations for treatment as indicated.
