DD is 13. Could she be teething?

I can't see anything but she says it is really sore behind her last big molar. Could this be wisdom teeth? I thought they came later. There is nothing to see but there isn't a lot of space for any more teeth.

Dribbly bump?!

Around 12 they tend to get their last molars through, so by now, she should have 28 teeth.

If she hasn't got 28, then yes, it could be teeth.

Wisdom teeth are typically around 18-25. It is hard to say, to be honest. I would suggest seeing a dentist, unless you know for sure that she doesn't have all her teeth, so teething could be possible!
