Wisdom tooth, overbite [maybe] and whitening


6 years ago my top left molar right at the back shattered when I was eating mac n cheese. After having the edges smoothed by my dentist I got major infection which was agonizing across my entire mouth. The dentist - after a week of antibiotics - pulled the tooth with what I can only describe as the most distressing sound I've ever heard inside my skull.


Since then another tooth has grown in that spot. Thing is, it seems to be quite a fair distance away from its closest neighbor and it feels as if its not come out all the way either - it's not level with the rest of my teeth. Is this a wisdom tooth now? When I was 18 my dentist said that if they came through, I'd have to have my wisdoms removed...


Also, I've never thought I had an overbite but my top jaw closest over my bottom jaw where the top teeth sort of wrap in front of the bottom ones... Is this normal?


Lastly, how the bleeding hell do I go about whitening my teeth? I brush regularly with all of this "extra strength whitening" toothpaste but it doesn't help at all... Definitely my teeth are stained by coffee and whatever else but I just can't get them white again... Help?
