Go for crown in my opinion as it protects your tooth from all sides and is more durable. For charges you will have to inquire with local dentists, as it depends on the choice of material, area of Clinic, Doctor’s seniority and experience and lab charges.

As per my opinion overlay is best option bcoz for crown we have to cut more natural tooth structure as compared to crown.
