Cracked Tooth: You'll need to see a local dentist for an evaluation and treatment. That tooth has serious issues, even if you have no pain. The sooner you get treated the better the chance that that tooth can be restored. Waiting for pain or failure to treat will can possibly result in more extensive care or even the loss of that tooth.

Broken tooth: If something's broken it has to be repaired or removed. Please see a Dentist before the chronic annoyance becomes acute pain. High risk of infection. Seek quality care.
