So i m missing teeth from the second molar to the canine tooth on the right lower side of my jaw. I have been to various dentist in two years due to other reasons and some of them recommended implants and after that bridge while some said no implants and only bridge.

Gone through you query. If there is enough bone then implants is the best option but if the bone support is less than removable denture is best. Long span bridge is not indicated in such cases as it will lead to breakage of bridge. Go for an OPG x ray first
