Don't get a bridge. You will sacrifice two otherwise healthy teeth to accommodate one bad one. In addition, decay will form under the bridge after a while. This happened to me. Now I am in the process of getting implants. I should have done that years ago.
I'm not sure what you are specifically asking. You identified two very separate issues. The best tooth replacement option is often a dental implant especially if the adjacent teeth are healthy.
Dental implants are not the least expensive option. Patients may choose a removable bridge which is generally disliked by many, fixed bridge that requires tooth structure to be removed from the adjacent teeth, implant and no treatment.
Your dentist should be able to provide a financial look at the different options as well as the best option and alternatives to your specific case.
