Dr. Robert Allen Bridges

Our Team

Dr. Robert Bridges, a native of Warner Robins, Georgia, leads our practice with dedication and expertise in periodontics and dental implants. His journey to dentistry began right here in Warner Robins, where he excelled in academics and extracurricular activities before venturing to Athens to pursue his undergraduate studies at the University of Georgia. Graduating Cum Laude, Dr. Bridges then continued his education at the Medical College of Georgia School of Dentistry, forging a path in a field that sparked his passion. During his time at Augusta, he wouldn't just focus on his studies but also balance his responsibilities with work and family life, eventually marrying his high school sweetheart, Michele.

Driven by a desire to specialize, Dr. Bridges wholeheartedly immersed himself in the demanding field of periodontics during his three-year residency program. While mastering complex procedures and advancements, he also welcomed the arrival of his daughter, Rachel. This period was filled with both academic challenges and personal joys, culminating in his completion of the program and the birth of his son, Carter. Eager to return to his roots, Dr. Bridges established his practice in Warner Robins in 1998, choosing to give back to the city that nurtured him. His vision for an office in a growing area materialized, situated on land once a peach orchard, reflecting a commitment to growth and renewal.

Dr. Bridges is deeply committed to staying at the forefront of his field, actively participating in professional organizations such as the Georgia Dental Association, the American Dental Association, the Central District Dental Society, the American Academy of Periodontology, and the Southern Academy of Periodontology. Beyond his dentistry practice, his passion for learning extends to his hobbies. Overcoming a childhood dream, he achieved his private pilot's license, solidifying his adventurous spirit.
