About 6 years back my brother had pinned me on the floor and was tickling me and I hit the tiling on the floor hard and broke the biggest part of my front tooth on it. It hurt like a bitch. When I went to a grownup dentist this time, he suggested that he pulls off what's left of it with a sort of pincer contraption and then installs a fake one with a screw
I thought it wasn't a good idea. We ended up using some sort of soldifying cream that he sculpted to fill what was missing. I've broken it off twice since once when I was trying to open a switchknife with my teeth and another when I was eating. Every time I go to have it fixed the dentist suggests pulling it out. Now the whole tooth is moving back and forth.
