Possibly: You run the risk of the change in altitude exacerbating your symptoms. Try to have it treated before you fly.

You should be fine: A minor change in cabin pressure should not affect either.

Not recommended: If there is a cyst formation, the cyst together with the impacted wisdom tooth must be extracted ASAP.
