you cannot keep the broken tooth inside the mouth because its a site of infection. If it's not mobile and the roots are intact then the tooth can be saved by doing root canal treatment followed by capping , but for doing the capping crown part is build by doing post and core.

if the victimized tooth is not moving, you can undergo root canal treatment followed by post and core treatment over which a crown can be placed. if the tooth in question is not favorable for retaining, the best treatment is to go for extraction followed by immediate implant with grafting procedure (optional).

Hi,Please get the broken tooth removed even though there is no pain as it is a source of infection & pain, swelling can come any time.Also for good biting & to prevent bite damage it is very important to put false teeth after the broken tooth is removed.
