Hi. The open spaces next to the canine outs probably because of missing teeth. Your best option work be to get implants done as that does not damage any other tooth.
A bridge will replace the missing tooth by taking support from the side teeth. This may not be a very healthy option since it damages a natural tooth.

meet an implant specialist and discuss furthur treatment

Normally bridge means that with the support of two adjacent teeth we replace the missing tooth... For blank spaces you can get crowns or if space is small u can get laser ( composite ) filling
