Hello,
From what you have written its quite clear that it is a very old bridge. Best will be to get two separate crowns on the teeth. And replace the middle missing space with an implant.
Implant usually starts from 25000/-
If cost is an issue then please get a new bridge.
Thank you.
Next Steps
New bridge
