Hello,
A more detailed history of the injury is required, along with images, if possible xray.
According to the details provided, 1 week may not be enough for it to heal, if it has not completely healed after 6 weeks.

Well there are chances if a good root canal treatment was performed on the concerned teeth before splinting. In your case chances are slightly thin that your tooth will become immobile in next one week. You can however wait and watch.
