He broke the distal half of his central off into the attachment, crestal area. None of these teeth respond to cold, including the broken tooth. No teeth are tender to percussion. 

He wants a simple solution and I'd like to provide him with one. I can do a composite restoration and hope for the best. I'm concerned though that I'm gonna cause gingival inflammation by violating the biologic width and/or a periapical abcess. What do you think is the right call here? I think I need to address the other central as well before the same thing happens.
