How easy is it for teeth to get cracked? i turned my head suddenly and my bottom teeth were sliding against my top teeth. are my teeth cracked?

Not Easily: But if traumatized by impact, grinding, or compromised by caries, they can chip or crack more readily. Enamel is the hardest substance in your body, but can still break if enough force is applied. Diamonds and granite are harder than enamel, but they too can be broken. If you grind, wear a bruxism guard to protect your teeth, and don't use them as tools.
