Hard to say: It depends on how badly broken down the teeth are, their periodontal condition, and the overall condition of the adjacent teeth. All of these factors go into making a diagnosis and treatment plan. Have a local dentist evaluate you.

Get good exam: After trauma of this nature, i recommend a thorough exam. This should include visual, transillumination, pulp tests, radiographs, and occlusion. The complete nature or the fall should be discussed, for this helps the examining dentist ascertain the total area needed for x-rays.
