If most of the tooth is intact without discomfort / pain, just a filling built up is enough. No need of cap.
But First the cause of cusp breakage needs to be diagnosed otherwise filling won't stay.
Occlusion ( bite pattern) evolution is required before treatment.
Around 1500/- per tooth can vary according to dentist.

Depending on the level of fracture, we need to assess the condition n check for vitality test, pain and others. Based on all this, if condition is feasible, u can go for composite fillings, should consult dentist first, then plan
