English term or phrase: offered a three-unit bridge

Large-scale concentration on the dental implant market seems destined to usher the practice from niche status to a mass market. For years, most general dentists offered a three-unit bridge as the only treatment option for a missing single tooth. Now, many general dentists view that as an opportunity for a single-tooth implant, which is becoming widely recognized as the best treatment for replacing one tooth. Additionally, a growing number of root canal candidates are opting to have a tooth extracted and an implant placed. As patient aesthetic needs have come to dominate the location and placement of implants, implant companies have introduced innovative technologies to help dentists achieve a pleasing appearance in their finished work.
