As per your complain if you have a lost tooth/ teeth then bridge is a good option for replacement..

Rates vary with the quality of materials and techniques used and please tell that how many teeth are missing and what rates are advised to you so that I can guide you appropriately...

The parameters that should be checked are:

2. There should be no gum disease or Infection in gums and the teeth should not be XXXXXXX or loose.
3.The supporting teeth should not be decayed..
4. There should be teeth on either side of the lost tooth for proper XXXXXXX and support..

These are the basic parameters that should be checked..
