Beshoy Karas.

Here in Bakersfield, our office (formerly McCullough Dental) is a warm, friendly space where every patient is treated as an individual — not a number on a chart. Whether you're here for a cleaning, a single crown or a full smile makeover, the experience is built around your comfort, your time and your goals.

We're proud to offer a complete range of general and cosmetic dentistry services, combining the warmth of a family practice with the precision of modern dental technology. Same-day crowns, digital implant planning, clear aligners — everything you need under one roof, planned with care.

Quality dentistry isn't a quick fix — it's a plan. Before the drill, before the impression, before the appointment is even booked, comes the diagnosis. The smile that leaves our office isn't the one that looks good today. It's the one that lasts.

The staff at Karas Dental Care is wonderful! They are welcoming and helpful. Everything runs like clockwork and there is very little wait time. Amber, my hygienist, is thorough and careful, and the doctor uses the latest technology in his work.

Frequently asked questions · FAQ

Before your first visit, you deserve to know.

The questions we hear most often at the office — answered with the same honesty we bring to every diagnosis.

Mild discomfort at most — not pain. We use the right anesthesia for each case and a technique that keeps the visit comfortable: a filling, an implant or a root canal can be much easier than most people expect. If anything bothers you mid-procedure, we stop — every time.

It depends on what needs to be done. Cleanings and fillings usually take one visit. Whitening takes a few. Clear aligners, implants and full rehabilitations can span months or years — because they involve steps with their own biological timing. You leave the consultation knowing exactly what to expect for your case.

Only as much as needed to restore function, health and proportion. The goal is never a smile that looks “done” — it's a smile that's yours, in its best possible state. If a whitening, a veneer or an aligner isn't right for you, we'll say so. A natural result isn't an accident; it's a standard.

It varies by case. Fillings and root canals: 1 to 2 visits. Whitening: 2 to 4. Clear aligners: monthly check-ins for 6 to 18 months on average. Implant restoration: stages that add up to 4–12 months, depending on bone and prosthetic type. The exact number is set during your diagnosis — never before.

For most routine procedures (cleanings, fillings, whitening), you're back to your day the same day. Implants and extractions may bring mild discomfort for 2 to 7 days, with swelling that fades quickly. You leave with an individualized post-op protocol and a direct line to us for any questions.

We accept most major dental insurance plans. We do not accept Medi-Cal or Denti-Cal. Please call us at (661) 397-0665 to verify coverage with your specific plan before your visit — we're happy to walk you through it.

Yes, when the plan supports it. In a single visit it's common to combine cleaning + whitening, or extraction + bone graft. In a single plan, it's common to combine aligners, whitening and veneers in sequence. Combining makes sense when treatments add up — not when they get in each other's way.

It's essentially a diagnosis. You leave with a full read on what's happening in your mouth — function, aesthetics, gum and bone health — and with a treatment plan that fits your case and your timing. No pressure to commit to anything on the spot.
