Firstly get a X RAY done, that will confirm whether the tooth can be saved or not , and if possible then a RCT followed by a POST AND CORE followed by a crown can be done.. If the tooth can not be saved then an implant would be the first choice, if not than a bridge would be the second choice
Next Steps
Rush to your dentist
