Do you mean the side buttons are physically broken? If that’s the case then you will have to get the phone repaired. Here are instructions for force-restarting an iPhone→If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won't turn on or is frozen. The instructions in that link ALWAYS work if followed carefully unless the phone has suffered a catastrophic hardware failure.
