Can a Maryland bridge be removed if only one side has come loose? Can I replace it with an implant?

Question

Is it true that for a Maryland bridge the teeth on either side of the pontic must be real?

I heard that in order for a Maryland bridge to last, the teeth on either side of the pontic must be real. Is this true? If not, is there a way to fasten a Maryland bridge between a real tooth and a crown in a way that it will last?

Yes, you can have it removed and probably have an implant.
