Call the pedidentist: It needs to be seen to make sure the tooth is seated and that nothing else need to be done. I do not know all of what they do but it may need a splint. See one tomorrow. Do not let them pull it initially but if they want to make sure to get a second opinion. Best wishes

Pedodontist: It would be best to have your child visit the dentist. After an examination, the dentist will determine if any treatment is necessary. Monitoring the tooth is always a wise idea.

Important: Your child should see a Dentist, or preferably a children's Dental specialist, a Pedodontist, sooner rather than later. Erupting incisor may be fractures, or surrounding bone may be fractured. This can have long term implications. See Dentist immediately for examination, probably x-ray's, and treatment plan.
