Better to go for an xray first
If its broken extensively till or near to the pulp area of the tooth then go for rct nd capping
If its nt broken that extensively go for composite build up , veneers etc.

Yes . You might require a root canal in that tooth before doing a cap depending on how deep the fractured portion is. If it’s not too big , fillings or ceramic veneers may also be an option
