subject: Which Should You Choose Implants Or A Bridge? [print this page] If a tooth next to an implant develops a cavity, then it is a easy matter to fill the tooth. If a tooth in a bridge develops a problem, then the entire bridge will have to be re-done. Generally speaking if the teeth on either side of the missing tooth are healthy, then you should probably go with an implant. If they are not healthy, you should consider a bridge, since the teeth are going to need crowns anyway.
