In plain English

What is a dental bridge?

A bridge fills the gap left by a missing tooth. A false tooth sits in the gap, held by crowns on the teeth either side, and the whole bridge is cemented in place so it is not taken out.

Because the teeth either side carry the bridge, they are prepared for crowns. That is the main trade-off to weigh against an implant.
