Eventually: You may have chipped a filling or your tooth, but since this is not an emergency no need to go in at the moment.

Fracture: Sounds like you fractured off part of your tooth. You must see a Dentist to determine the seriousness the fracture and an appropriate treatment plan. Time is not your friend. You need to be examined now.
