H, If you can afford then do go for implant. In a bridge the adjacent two teeth will also get compromised. One implant would cost you around 20-30 thousand. Bridge would be cheaper as compared to implants. But implant would be better in the long run so go for it.

Dental implant is a better option if the budget allows, cost depends upon the expertise of the dentist.
