this is a typical case of trauma from occlusion...ideally upper teeth should be outside and lower teeth should be inside..but due to cross bite, your upper teeth is inside and lower teeth is outside due to which you have lost your gum hence causing black triangle and sensitivity....please visit a prosthodontist or orthodontist for correction of cross bite....
Next Steps
visit a prosthodontist or orthodontist soon
