Dental insurance : Fix bridges are non- removable tooth replacements which are cemented in place. A less expensive tooth replacement is a removable partial denture. Insurance companies sometimes just pay for the expensive options only.

removeable dentures : If you're missing teeth, this insurance will only cover their replacement with a removable partial denture. Fixed bridge work is cemented in place and not removed. It generally involves crowns on the supporting teeth and is more complex and expensive.

yes: Fixed bridges are nonremovable prosthetics used to replace missing teeth. If you are missing one tooth then the teeth on either side of the space are prepared for crowns. Molds are taken and the lab makes a one piece unit that covers the preprared teeth and the missing tooth. The bridge is then cemented over the prepared teeth so now you have replacement of your missing tooth.
