It depends on the health of the tooth. Teeth which have been neglected for long periods of time can be damaged by normal activity (e.g., eating). Healthy teeth which are brushed/flossed regularly can withstand a substantial amount of force without chipping. It is what teeth are meant to do.

How much force would a punch need to have to break someones jaw?
in layman's terms, a lot (fyi ur average guy will have a hard time of it without a weapon), but its hard to give a specific answer to this question as there is a lot of difference in each persons bones especially when you consider age as a factor. From early teenage years to roughly 33-34 years of age (when your bones are at there strongest) the force required to fracture almost any bone in the body multiplies by a factor of 2.5 to 3 times. So Your looking at at least around 3-5000 Newtons of force, and for those of you who didn't do Physics in school this is roughly like having a medium sized guy jumping on your head. so don't try it, your more likely to break several bones in your hand then to break someones jaw.

Do you pull down or to the side to pull a tooth out?
Please, for the love of God, do not extract your own tooth. Tooth extraction is a technique and has little to do with force. If you do it yourself the root tip could break off and that can less to a horrible infection. If cost is an issue many dental offices accept payments. If it's a loose baby tooth the adult tooth will push it out on it's own.

What happens if your tooth broke?
If you completely break your tooth, like through the inside and everything, you will feel a lot of pain in your mouth. However, if by break, you mean you chipped the tooth, nothing really happens, but you can feel the break with your tongue. Either way, if you have dental insurance, you might get a filling for a chipped tooth, or a whole new replacement tooth if you broke the entire tooth.
