That's a wisdom tooth. You only have 3 more to go once this one gets in. If it doesn't stop hurting soon you may need to see a dentist. Alot of people don't have enough room in their mouth for them and have to have them cut out. Good luck!!!

This is either a wisdom tooth or an extra molar. Before human lifespans were as long as they are now and we had to grind tough grains in our mouths the front teeth might wear down or rot from lack of cleanliness and these extra teeth extended our lives a few short, if painful years.
See the dentist, this tooth could cause serious problems.

haha I grew all of those back teeth when I was 11. Everyone grows back teeth (like the one you're growing).

This is most likely a second molar that was slow in coming in.
