New Crown..: .. together with a new post, if enough tooth structure is remaining and no periodontal problems. If the remaining tooth is not sound, it might be more cost effective to extract, place an implant, and and then a new crown. In any event, if the tooth has fractured as described, the old crown is now useless.

Best option is: see your dentist for evaluation, x-rays and treatment. Most dentists are committed to helping patients save their natural teeth. However, if a tooth cannot be saved, most of the time a replacement must be planned for to maintain a person’s smile, function and chewing ability.
