Hello
this is an extremely difficult question to answer without photographs or a physical visit. The amount of protrusion, flaring, overlap of teeth etc need to be measured and this decides if only orthodontic treatment will help or will surgical correction be required. Please contact your nearest orthodontist.

Yup that's a common thing. U may have accidently broken some little fragment of teeth. U can meanwhile take some desentizing toothpaste for sensitivity and go to a dentist for the checkup of your concerned tooth cz you may need to smoothen edges of that teeth or reconstruct the lost part.
