My bone augmentation in preparation for dental implants has been a failure, what do you suggest I do next?

Q.
I recently started treatment for 2 dental implants to replace 3 missing teeth, I had to have bone augmentation for which the dentist used an artifical bone replacement. This has failed and its now been suggested i have it redone using my own bone at an additional cost of £1400 taking the total cost to just under £6000. My only other option is a 6 teeth bridge which although is one third of the cost I am not sure is the best option, could you please give me your opiniont
A.
I would be happy to take an intial look without charge, as a specific opinion is not practical without a clinical examination. The cost , final appearance, lifespan of the restoration, assdociated discomfort of the procedure as well as the physical site / biting forces all need to be balanced when deciding
