About Teeth & Gums Dental

Located at 4004 Panama Ln, Bakersfield, CA 93313, Teeth & Gums Dental operates as a dentist serving Bakersfield in California. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it. Besides its main category, the business also describes itself as dental, so it may cover more than the name suggests.

Dental care in the United States is delivered mostly by private practices: a general or family dentist who handles exams, cleanings, fillings and crowns, and refers out anything that needs a specialist. Group practices and dental clinics put several dentists, hygienists and sometimes specialists under one roof, often with evening and Saturday hours. Most offices ask new patients for a comprehensive exam with X-rays before routine cleanings, which the American Dental Association recommends every six months. Prices are set by each practice, and most accept dental insurance (PPO plans more widely than HMO ones), CareCredit-style financing or an in-house membership plan for people without coverage. Emergency dental services take same-day patients for toothaches, broken teeth and abscesses, usually at a premium.

The business lists hours on 6 days of the week. On most of those days it is open 9 am–6 pm. It is closed on Sunday. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm. The listed phone number is (661) 833-8393. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone.

Its Google rating is 4.0 out of 5 from 28 reviews, a solid but mixed picture; reading the most recent reviews will tell you what to expect.

Bakersfield is in California, on the West Coast, where the climate ranges from foggy coast to hot inland valleys, wildfire season can affect air quality in late summer, and traffic is the main thing to plan around. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Bakersfield follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

I brought my son here recently as a new patient. He was a little nervous but after his appointment he said he loved the dentist and treatment went so smooth he didnt even feel when he got the numbing shot. My appointment is next week, looking forward to it.

I took my brother and my brother gaged so they took his X-rays on the big machine and then I told the lady in charge that he needs simple cleaning and she said that it’ll pain him because he gags, they wanted to do deep cleaning but he just needs simple cleaning. My brother isn’t mentally well, he’s mentally disabled, he’s a toddler in the brain but in general he’s grownup man and he has seizures too. Anyway, this lady kept saying that he needs to go to UCLA because he can’t stay steady, whose going to there if there’s dentists in Bakersfield just to do check up and simple cleaning, I mean what are the dentists are for in Bakersfield. Do not go to this dentist, unless you want to waste your time at the place. The lady is the worst and so are the dentists, couple kind people but that’s all you’re going to get out of the place at best. They don’t care about mentally or physically disabled people it seems like. Do not recommend it. They ignore all of it. Highly suggest to going to the other places like Omni and first choice dentistry. Don’t waste your time with these people because they don’t care.

Dr. Cruz is one of the most gentlest and kindest dentist my family ever had. She helped straightened my kids teeth out and made them look beautiful. She also gave us some really good advice and tips on how to take care of their teeth. My kids really love her so much. We have been going there for eight years now. My oldest child finally gotten her teeth out six months ago and now she looks so beautiful with her teeth straight. Now we're going to work on my other two sons to straighten their teeth. The price compared to other dental places is much more cheaper and is a really good deal. I would very strongly recommend for people to go here if you have a dental problem.

Dr. Cruz is amazing dentist. It's hard to find a dentist that you can trusted for your kids teeth. She fix my kids teeth even mine and she always discuss what to do in my kids teeth. She really take care and very gentle in my kids teeth. I recommend her clinic the Teeth and Gums. Thank you so much Dr. Cruz for taking care our teeth.

Dr. Cruz is an amazing person she goes above and beyond to ensure you are well taken care of. My daughter had a bad accident that caused her front permanent teeth to go loose and Dr. Cruz did all she can to save those teeth. Thank you so much!!
