You must see an experienced dentist to have the remainder of your tooth removed/extracted.  Perhaps it can still be saved?!  Get to a dentist ASAP!

Yes, this is an emergency and you should see your dentist ASAP.

Without an X-ray and proper clinical evaluation, its impossible to guess what your tooth will need, but it does look restorable (it can be saved).  Ask your dentist about an Emax Onlay if your tooth does not need a root canal.  If Root canal is indicated, an Emax crown will be your best bet.

Yes, Veneers can often correct the appearance of crowded teeth.  It is always best to consult with an orthodontist first.  Each case must be evaluated carefully by an experienced and skilled cosmetic dentist .  Ask to see before/after photos of similar cases to yours.

Without a good photo and X-ray it is impossible to answer your question.   If you trust the dentist that is treating you, perhaps get 1 other opinion, (bring current X-ray of split tooth).

You should consult with an orthodontist regardless.  Sometimes, a combination of minor orthodontics prior to porcelain veneers is the best  option.  The orthodontist and cosmetic dentist must communicate well for this to work.

A caution to you is that without orthodontics, your 2 front teeth would need to be extensively reduced in order for a good esthetic outcome. This would put these teeth at risk for root canal
