Yes u can very well go ahead and give the bridge..there are several reasons..the first is you avoid cutting an extra tooth and the other reason being if you include the lateral, it may have to go in for a root canal if the patient has high aesthetic expectations..also the canine is not subjected to heavy forces unless the patient bites with it..and the pericemental areas of the premolar and canine are also almost equal..Be careful you tell the patient not to bite with the bridge..
