I broke tooth #30. I don't want to have the tooth removed, as I can't afford to replace it. Is there any way to repair it?

On the X-ray, you can see that the U of the root is no longer attached on both sides. My dentist said it cannot be saved, and offered many options (since you will be able to see the empty spot when I smile). My dental insurance is terrible, and I just don't have the money to do a crown or bridge or implant. I might be able to afford the removable tooth piece that attaches with wires to the other teeth, but I don't know the cost yet.
