Hi Dr anwar here,
Generally if the tooth is mobile immediately after fall/accident, that tooth is to be splinted to the adjacent teeth with adhesive bonding or ss wires for 2 to 3 weeks. It helps the mobile tooth to be stable and retains its anchorage with healing at the root end.
Also if the tooth is fractured after fall, depending on the degree of fracture it has to be treated.
Consult oral & maxillofacial surgeon (OMFS) at your nearest dental clinics
