You can go for metal crown that is not tooth coloured. It may cost you half of what you have been advised. No the dentist is not overcharging. The cost of crown depends on the material and it ranges from 1500 to 15000. Rct for molar for rs 4000 is okay.

Yes it's quite necessary to get crown on root canal treated tooth. If he is charging 3000 for tooth coloured/ ceramic crown then rates are fine. For metal crown it is 1800/- I think your dentist is charging you fine.
