You are correct that very hard objects can break the teeth and a broken teeth may need to be removed to prevent pain and future infections. The only way to know if there is damage to any teeth is to have Bruno examined by the veterinarian. Plus it will set your mind at ease. Try to get this done within the next few days. Best of luck.
