3 crowns called a "bridge"?

3 crowns called a "bridge"?

If I have an implant done and also need crowns on the two teeth neighboring the implant tooth, are the crowns that are to be put on those 3 teeth ever referred to as a "bridge"?

e.g.,  on teeth 4, 5 & 6  -  with #5 having an 'implant'

Usually not.  Unless the crowns are connected and fused together, I wouldn't consider it a bridge at all.
