Do I need a root canal!?!?!

Ok so when about 3 or 4 years ago, I was skating and fell on my face. My two front teeth were chiped more than half way up. I got little caps on them the next day and there was no pain or anything. But just about a week ago they started to hurt randomly at times... Not excruciating or anything but I have noticed since my jaw is changing my bottom teeth seem to be pushing on my fillings a little and I was thinking that might have been causing the pain. the fillings are moving forward a little too so it is creating a ridge. My guess Is the ridge that was created opened like a crack or something so the nerves have been uncovered a little bit. But idk and I really want to know if I need a root canal or not. Like I said they just started to hurt (ache feeling and sometimes sharp unexpected) and they are really sensitive to hot and cold (but that's the same for all my teeth but it is still a little worse). So I was hoping someone could tell me the answer cause my mom is worried and wants to take me to the dentist soon and I'm scared it's going to hurt a lot:( so please I need a answer ASAP!!

It sounds like the fillings or caps are loosening up. If you don't go to the dentist now, it will hurt a lot more in the future.
