I got a cracked tooth, what should I do?

Hey,

As soon as I got a cracked tooth immediately, I rinsed my mouth with warm water to clean the area. I put cold compresses on the face to keep the swelling down.
Still, with the countries shut down and non-emergency dental services, how long should I wait? I'm getting a little paranoid because I'm scared what if the pain increases and there is an emergency, will the consider treating me?

I do not think it will be an emergency. I do believe that over time it will get better, there is nothing you can do about a cracked tooth. Maybe have it removed and replaced. Or just have it removed. Over time muscles in face will stop contracting and making the pain worse.
