Please upload your pictures and X-rays.
Only if you are a diabetic or any other medical conditions... only then healing may be compromised that too if ur medical conditions are not treated.
Crowns will restore the function of chewing.
Next Steps
Please explain your concern explicitly, because only if a tooth is missing, implant/bridge is advisable, if a tooth is a restorable condition we can give a crown.

Crowns are used for root canaled teeth whereas a bridge or an implant is for missing teeth. Please explain clearly why you have been advised this and post pics of the teeth if possible
