Is there an alternative to having an implant?

Q. About 10 years ago my dentist killed the nerve to front top tooth and it began to discolour through out the years i asked if any treatments could be done as the tooth was still in good condition.They told me a veneer was the best option so had it done and now 9 months later it snaped off and i am left with a temporay which looks awful now i have to get a screw in tooth is there anything else i can have done as i dont like the thought of my jaw been drilled into thanks,
A. Unfortunately if the tooth has fractured of at gum level your only option to restore the tooth is with a post and new crown. The post goes into the canal of the tooth as you have no nerve tin the tooth you won’t experience any pain.
