Hello!Read your query.

Any dental treatment is contraindicated in the first trimester (first 3 months of your pregnancy).
It can be safely done at this time without taking a x-ray.(although the radiation is minimal,it is better not to take a x-ray)

Keep away from the x-ray room when you are in the dentist's place.
It can cost anywhere between 3500-5000 Rs depending on the experience of the dentist and the locality.Additional cost for the crown will add up.

Regards.
