Can a tooth that has been chipped to gumline be saved? (Photo)

mike44102
I have neglected my teeth for years and my 2nd molar has chipped off to gumline. There is like 25% of tooth not chipped at gumline. Can it be saved with rootcanal treatment and crown or would the tooth need to be removed and possibly need a dental implant?
