It is very rare for a nail to not grow back unless you severely dammaged the nail bed. You probably would have had a fractured finger in that case also. The nail will take a few months to grow back and will be softer than normal so you have to protect that finger for a while.
I have removed many toenails and they all grew back fine to my knowledge. It is only in the case of repeted infections due to ingrown nails that we would actually ';kill'; the nail bed so the nail wont grow back anymore.
But yeah, dont worry. It is very likely that it will grow back just fine.
