Answers:
I would contact the Dentist, and ask them what your best options are. They deal with questions like this everyday. Many people do leave on temporary crowns for a long time. It's not the best idea, because they aren't as strong, but that's about it. If you are pregnant, they most likely will not have you take x-rays. So...give them a call! I don't think x-rays are typical for the final crown placement.
