I HAD IT DONE 21 YEARS AGO and it's still as good as new. this is a standard procedure that has been in vogue for the last 30 years, but current bridge techniques are so advanced that you could be getting a minimally invasive , fiber reinforced resin bonded bridge which has had extensive research done on it and is very predictable done at the right hands

90% you wouldnt have a problem, but better to have a mini implant though which would be the gold standard treatment because the implant would not have to damage the neighbouring teeth to get its support

All the best Many lower anterior (front) bridges fail due to the inherent small size of the abutment (supporting) teeth.
The abutment teeth often die if the preparation is extensive or if you are young (20-35).Root canal then becomes necessary and sometimes posts- notoriously difficult in thin teeth- and possibly replacement bridge.
A Maryland (adhesive) bridge would be a better alternative if you have good teeth either side because minimal preparation is required . An implant would be even better but more costly. A mini-implant is not indicated - what you need is implant with a narrow platform!
