Thanks for posting your query to HCM.
It might be a supernumerary tooth as tpu are saying that all tour wisdom tooth had been extracted previously which appears during the tooth development.
If it is impacted in bone and as accessed by a radiograph can't erupt in oral cavity, it is better to get it extracted before it causes pain and dental problems.
Hope my answer will help you.
