A short answer is, will a tooth with a crown function like a tooth without one, yes. This answer supposes that the crown is well made and that the reason for the initial chip/broken tooth was addressed and that their is sufficient tooth structure under the crown so that they can support each other. Make sure to have the conversation with your dentist about why they think your tooth chipped/broke in the first place and has this issue been corrected. If it was due to a singular trauma, then this should be pretty simple. If this is due to non-ideal bite forces during chewing due to tooth position then that is another story and a crown or two is unlikely to fix the problem long term. That doesn't mean things can't be fixed for the long term, it just means that more dental work may need to be done.

Lumineers/Veneers look like they would be the perfect solution for you. You have a beautiful smile that is just not quite symmetrical in regards to tooth size of the laterals. You may want to consider doing veneers on more than just the lateral incisors so that spacing and size can be balanced properly to achieve the symmetry you are looking for. If you were a patient of mine I would recommend at minimum veneers on both laterals and possibly the two centrals as well to redistribute size and spacing to help achieve symmetry.

First of all, from your photos, you have a beautiful smile. Depending on what it is you would like changed or what it is you are unhappy with, there are a couple of options. One option does involve orthodontist the other restorative, like Veneers. A lot depends on what your goals are. If you would like to know more specifically what that would entail from time and cost aspect, I would be happy to go over that with you. I offer free virtual consults through my website. Just click on the button on the upper right of each page and upload these same photos and details of what you would like changed and I will send you a video showing you what is possible and go over details like time frames and cost.

Neither the bonding nor the Invisalign are to blame. The orthodontist is correct in saying that the aligners should not brake the bonding. At the same time the dentist that has done the bonding is not to blame either. Your bite is to blame. That is why the orthodontist and dentist are working together prior to placing crowns. I know this stinks, but the best option is to be patient, let the orthodontist finish and then your dentist can get your crowns put in the correct position to best fit your new bite.

I can not be certain of the status of tooth A in your photos without further examination, however it does not look good for the long term prognosis of tooth A from what is able to be seen.
