Should you have your tooth pulled or filled?
Possibly a root canal. Or he could put a false half on it. Dentists NEVER "glue back on" the other half. If it is a small "chip" most likely a filling will do it. A larger break will require a filling to make the tooth "tooth shaped" again and then a crown. A root canal is only needed if the tooth had large decay causing the break or if the nerve of the tooth is damaged or exposed.

Dental Crown Installation?
Getting a crown on your tooth can be a scary experience if you don't like going to the dentist. Your mouth will be numbed by a shot that goes into your gum. They then file down the tooth and take out any cavity that may have formed. After several attempts at getting the right size cap and making sure it looks like a tooth, the crown is glued into the correct location. It will be a temporary crown until the new one is molded. You then go back in a couple of weeks and have the official crown put in.

How do you treat a knocked out tooth?
Put the tooth back yourself. If it is replaced within 5 minutes it can replant itself successfully.Don't put a baby tooth back as it may damage the adult tooth bud in the socket causing deformation or tooth dilaceration.If it is an adult tooth, gently rinse the tooth with saline/milk/contact lens solution. The patient's saliva can also be used. DO NOT rinse it with water (if you really have to, just for a few seconds).Hold it by the crown. Don't touch the root or scrub it. The layer of cells on the root surface must not be disturbed.Success is best if an adult tooth is reinserted in the socket within 5 minutes.Don't reinsert a tooth if there is a chance the tooth may be inhaled, for example if the person is unconscious.The tooth may survive if it has been out up to an hour - if it can't be reinserted immediately keep it in milk.Whether or not it has been reinserted, see a dentist. The dentist may have to splint it.
What happens if you do not get a crown after root canal?
The reason why we dentist recommend for a crown to be placed in a root canal treated tooth is because the tooth tends to get fragile or more brittle after the treatment, as a lot of portion of the crown is lost during the procedure and as it cannot withstand masticatoryforce which is applied to a tooth during the process of chewing and tearing food and in case of the anterior tooth it is not esthetically acceptable also so we advise a patient to get a crown placed after a root canal treatment
