dental implant or bridge for root resorption

Q.
I had 6 front upper teeth crowned (#6-110. #6 WAS needed following root canal. The others 5 were cosmetic. Tooth #8 was fine on xrays at the time of crowning. 3 months later the xray showed circular shadow about 1/4 wau into the side of tooth. 1 month later it is now at 3/4 through tooth.

Is there any other option? I’m sad I decided to have it crowned. Thank you.
