The dentist is the one who would have to prepare for the procedure. Your main job is just to keep your teeth clean (brush & floss) to keep your gums healthy, which makes the procedure go much better than unhealthy gums that bleed.
Not knowing what is exactly planned it is difficult to give an answer. But, you can prepare by having excellent oral hygiene prior to the bridge placement. If, you are medically able to take Ibuprofen or Alleve prior to the procedure, it will help with post procedure discomfort. Stay relaxed.
There is no preparation needed on your part. Eat before you go.
