Hello, ya missing tooth can be either replaced by an implant or a fixed bridge. For a bridge to be possible the missing tooth space should have at least one tooth on both the sides so that with the support of adjacent teeth a bridge can be made and cemented. So if your missing tooth fulfil this criterion you can opt for this. And it can be easily done in the time mentioned by you.
Thanks.
Thanks.
