What Do You Suggest For A Cap Split In Half?

My 5 year old daughter had a cap split in half, after getting hit in the mouth by a ball, half old tooth is exposed, half cap. she started complaining of pain and I noticed a bump like sore above with small white spot. any idea what this sore could be. I am worried about her permanent teeth, and it is too late in the night to call a dentist.
