If your talking about An 8 unit single prosthesis is a big NO NO as it puts a lot of forces on the natural teeth which are used for support.
Kindly visit a prosthodontist or you may practo consult.

Hi. Considering your history I feel she needs one consultation as there can be better treatment options possible. Definitely we can make her comfortable for chewing and biting. Before you consider bridge I will like to see the condition. You can visit my clinic in Pune for free consultation.
