If the cricket ball has hit you creating an injury. Definitely you will have to visit a dentist and find out if the tooth and bone are not affected. He will also give you advice regarding the soft tissue injury and treatment will be given. If all parameters are checked and treatment done the healing will take place in a fair amount of time . Which also depends on the depth and extent of injury and underlying infection and general body condition.
