Answers:
Eat soft foods and try not to move the teeth in any way (eg with your finger, tongue, or by grinding your teeth)!. Try to rinse your mouth with hot salty water after meals to keep everything clean, and try and make your dentist's appointment asap!. The dentist can take xrays and do other tests to see the condition of the teeth!. It's possible that the impact could kill of the nerve in the tooth so you'll need long-term follow up!. If the teeth have become loose, the dentist can attach a splint (like a piece of wire) to your teeth to help them stabilise!.
