It doesn't seems to be tooth fracture, but let the CBCT report come, your x ray shows a root stump also in the region of wisdom tooth, kindly get that extract first, it might be the cause of your problem... don't go for permanent crown till pain subsides!
Do share your cbct report once you get them...
